Hi there! Jennifer from Tarle speech with your question of the week. And this is
actually a quick tip. Got a question recently how do you pronounce s t
l e and we have a few silent letters here. We have a silent t and we have a silent
e. So when you see this s-t-l-e you're going to think about saying sul sul sul.
So to say that, the tip of your tongue is behind the back of your top front teeth and are pointing
down. Air moves out of your mouth continuously. Then you're going to move to that short uh.
Really short, really relaxed, really quick vowel. You're going to say that as you move
your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and you're going to hold it there. Technically
right on that spot between where your teeth meet the skin of the roof of your mouth. Sul Sul Sul.
If this is hard for you, keep in mind a few things. Make sure your tongue is far enough
forward for that UL. You don't want it way back there. Also some people make this L out of their
mouth with their tongue touching the bottom of the top front teeth that is fine too. Sul Sul
Sul. Also you might want to smile as you are saying Sul to make sure that your
lips are pulled back enough because some people will pucker their lips a little too
much and then it sounds just like a vowel and no l. So let's try this in some words
castle wrestle
whistle apostle
castle wrestle
whistle apostle
So give it a try I know people are going to notice the difference.
