TONGUE TWISTER:
Parra tenía una perra. Guerra tenía una parra
La perra de Parra subió a la parra de Guerra.
Guerra pegó con la porra a la perra de Parra.
Y Parra le dijo a Guerra:
¿Por qué ha pegado Guerra con la porra a la perra de Parra?
Y Guerra le contestó: Si la perra de Parra
no hubiera subido a la parra de Guerra,
Guerra no habría pegado con la porra a la perra de Parra.
Translation to English:
Parra had a (female) dog. Guerra had a vine.
Parra's dog climbed up Guerra's vine.
Guerra hit Parra's dog with the baton.
And Parra said to Guerra:
Why did Guerra hit Parra's bitch with the baton?
And Guerra answered her: If Parra's dog
had not climbed Guerra's vine,
Guerra would not have hit Parra's dog with the baton.

I still cant do it😢
You and me both lol none of these exercises helped lol. Ima keep trying though
me neither
Same here. It's frustrating.
Same
Same
Your style of teaching is amazing .what I like is it’s not boring .it’s fun to learn seeing your videos .
Practicing “drama” but with a Spanish R really helped me figure this out! Thank you so much
yayyy 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
how would that help lol thats the whole difficult part is transitioning to spanish
Ok so I couldn’t do it at first but I really watched the video over and over and I kept trying and then I got the first little bit so I just kept doing that to progress while also focusing on what I do. It works guys lol it takes practice and patience
My boyfriend is struggling to learn my native tongue (no pun intended), especially when it comes to rolling r’s so I wanted to send him a video. This is perfection!! How did I never think of using the word butter to teach him. I am confident that his video will have him rolling his r’s before our trip to DR. Thank you!!
Very helpful, Lucia! Eres el numero uno en mi libro! Muchas gracias!
😍😍😍
OMG. i did it!! 😂 Accidentally 😅 need to practice
That's great!! 😍😍😍 Now it will be easy for you to master it 😄👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You are awesome! Thank you for this lesson. It has been very hard for me to roll rr's. Does not come naturally to me. This helped.
Very glad to hear it helped! 😄😄 A little practice everyday and you will become a pro!
You have no ideia how useful this video was... 👏👏👏👏👏
😍 So glad to hear!! 💕
I was able to roll my roll my R’s easily after watching this!! I have been struggling so much!! Thank you!!
Yayy so happy to hear this! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Gracias 🌹🌷🌺 Easy for me
Ohh great!! 😄
I am almost getting it thank you for the great video. I had to take a break because I was getting dizzy from blowing out so much.
Be careful with the dizziness, when you master it you won't get dizzy doing it 💪🏼💪🏼 I'm sure you'll get the RR very soon :D have a nice day!
what the fuck is wrong with my tongue i physically cant do this
SAME
Me either bro, i’m legit native and i sound like a freaking gringo
Don´t worry, it´s difficult. Even some spanish speakers can´t. I learnt how to do it "right" when I was 25 years old! And I say "right" because I don't do it perfectly. I can only keep the sound off for a second or two. Practice "RRRRRRRRR" like a motorcicle.
I thought the same till I reaaaaally tried and made it finally with that video. I watched 20 videos and used all together. That video helped me being a respected gringo around my latinas and I LOVE IT!
This was just 6 minutes and 47 seconds of you flexing about your rolled R's and I still have no clue how that is physically possible...
¡Maravillosa!
Gracias 😍😍😍
This video is great! I was able to do it with some practice. It almost feels like clearing your throat at first
Great job!! So happy to hear you did it 😄😄
You arrrre grrrrreat!❤
Oh thank youu 😍😍 Muchas grrrrrrracias 😊
Didn't think I'd be doing tongue exercises today but here I am.
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
"You might not have used your tongue a lot...well, I don't know what you do in your free time" 😜
hehehe 😆
I need to do this for a trombone piece I need to learn
yooo i got it in like 3 minutes, going to visit my homie over in italy as an australian soon. thanks for your help
yayy so happy you got it 😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@holamydailyspanish i thought i got it but it was just me saying R whilst gargling 😪. whenever i try it’s just a shhhhh sound
So i can put the tongue where it needs to be and blow but i dont know what to do after that and how to produce a sound like how do you make a sound while blowing out
Don´t worry, it´s difficult. Even some spanish speakers can´t. I´m a spaniard, but I learnt how to do it "right" when I was 25 years old! And I say "right" because I don't do it perfectly. I can only keep the sound off for a second or two. Practice "RRRRRRRRR" like a motorcicle.
I think the difficult part that a lot of the teachers don't properly explain is how are they blowing out of the mouth. Are you blowing off the side of your mouth? Are you using your teeth as part of the process of blowing? Are you clinching your teeth at any part of your mouth?
Never seen a thumbnail on a video change so much
I never had a problem rolling my “r”. The trick is the position of the tongue. However, certain words like “barrio” are a little difficult because the accent is on the first syllable but if it were on the one just after the “rr” instead for some reason it makes rolling the “r” much easier. I don’t know why. Anyway, I have practiced that word and now it is not a problem. If I have a problem with Spanish pronunciation it is always to remember to pronounce the Spanish “v” correctly. I know it should never sound like English “v” yet that is what I hear a lot from native speakers. I have been practicing that for a while now.
This is the best and most fun lesson I have come across anywhere on learning to roll your r's. Thank You 🔆
Thank you very much 🥰 Really glad you found it fun 😄 did you get to roll your RRs? 💃💃
I did 🎉🥳🎉@@holamydailyspanish
In Dutch, we have the exact same 'r' in the northern provinces above the great rivers! People from Brabant and Limburg will struggle though :)
Ohh I didn't know! Very interesting! They will be more used to hearing the R sound at least in Brabant and Limburg?
1:02 No way! How is that possible?!!
It’s not about folding the tongue. It’s about creating a suction that holds the tongue in place.
Don´t worry, it´s difficult. Even some spanish speakers can´t. I´m spaniard, but I learnt how to do it "right" when I was 25 years old! And I say "right" because I don't do it perfectly. I can only keep the sound off for a second or two. Practice "RRRRRRRRR" like a motorcicle.
For me it works but only with my tongue down.
No se porque KZhead me recomienda esto si mi idioma nativo es el español xd pero me di cuenta como vibra la lengua cuando hacemos la rr, se ve gracioso
Where can I buy a new tongue
I ended up pronouncing the Russian R
i don't think that it's a video of teaching Espanol 🤣 this is something else
Wow. This is gonna take some work. And alone time. My wife & dog think I'm having a stroke.
hahaha keep trying! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 I believe you'll get it 🙌🏼
Holy sweet mother of Parra. 😆
😆😆😆😆😆
I can do it but I think the roll sound is coming from my throat. I feel the vibration in my throat and my tongue. Is that correct?
I don't feel the vibration in my throat, just in the palate (roof of the mouth) and the tip of the tongue. Try to get the vibration there, I hope you don't hurt your throat :O
ive heard there's a genetic component to trilling rs? never been able to... ive tried some of these tricks before and felt like i almost had it if these exercises work i will happily let you know!
There's a genetic component to looping your tongue like I do in the warm up, but not for rolling Rs 😄🙌🏼 There is some people with "tongue tie" who cannot pronounce words normally, but if you can pronounce "butter", sure you won't have problems to trilling the RRs soon 👏🏼👏🏼
@@holamydailyspanish yes! Rolling your tongue like that is genetic, and some of us cannot do it. I cannot do it. But I can roll my R’s perfectly well. I tell people to make a cat purring sound. Most people can do that. 😊
I would say that words with the R's in the middle are more difficult.
Ohh I see! With practice it will take the same little effort for both 👏🏼👏🏼
Did you know that looping your tongue is not possible with everyone. Its a genetic thing. I forget the percentage, but its true. As for rolling your Rs everyone should be able too. I never could, and I cant roll my tongue. Not sure if its related, but I will sure try!
Ohh I see the looping is a genetic thing! In my family everybody can hahah But yeah rolling the Rs has nothing to do with genetics or looping your tongue, everybody can 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 I hope you are able to do it with these exercises 😄
Butter rap unlocked it for me!
Fantastic!! 🤩🤩
My tongue doesn’t go to the back when I use English Rs so I don’t think I’m putting my tongue in the right position when I say “butter.” Any advice?
In Spanish the tongue doesn't go to the back, so it shouldn't be a problem 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Try pronouncing "drama" and the other exercises, the "butter" one might also help you if you don't roll your R to the back 👍🏼👍🏼
@@holamydailyspanish I’m kinda getting the idea with “drama,” but should I be pushing the tip of my tongue forward?
did anybody else get dizzy or am i not even able to blow out air correctly
Fun vid. Trumpet is not a wind instrument though ;)
Great you liked the video, thanks! 😄 And sure it is! Brass instruments are part of wind instruments 🙌🏼
I can get it when I look straight up but I can’t when I look down
Ohh that's interesting! You can try to keep rolling the RR looking up and down with a slow movement and practice that position 💪🏼💪🏼 You should be able to get it soon 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I have heard that many people in Costa Rica do not tool their “r” either. Why I do not know.
In some places (Costa Rica, Cuba, Bad Bunny 😀) some people pronounce "R" as "L": for example, "pol favol" instead "por favor" (please) ...
Whenever i try to do this i start gagging violently... 😢
Meaning of that sentence please
Of the tongue twister? It is in the description 😊
@@holamydailyspanish 👍🏻
Russian r is the same
I just sound like a bee 😂
Bout to become jynxzi 2.0
i couldn’t even do the warmups
Dude I can't do it and all I want to do is be able to say Turron correctly 😢😔
0:46 Ayo? 😂
Just say ---- R con R cigarro, R con R barril, rápido corren los carros cargados de azúcar del ferrocarril
When I learned that it did not have “cargados de azúcar” in it and I have also heard some other variation that is different from the way I learned it back in the early 60s.
My mother (Hispanic) made fun of me cause I cant roll my R's, now I'm here -_-
Great! I'll reveal to you a secret: some Spanish people are unable to pronounce the double R in the Spanish way, so they pronounce it in the French way (with the back of the tongue), which is weird and funny to say the least :) When I was a child we used to ask them to say that: "Parra tenía una perra. Guerra tenía una parra. La perra de Parra subió a la parra de Guerra. Guerra pegó con la porra a la perra de Parra".
this is a trained tongue 😂
heheh
For German speakers the French R is easier that the Spanish R for everyone else it is the opposite
French R is literally so easy, spanish R is hard asf
Still can't roll my rrrrrrs, but like the vid anyway
Ohh thanks! If you can pronounce "Butter" you can trill your Rs for sure! Keep practicing the exercise you think got you closer to the sound 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Nope still can’t roll my r’s 😢
Ohh really? Keep doing the exercises that you feel got you closer to the RR and you should be able to do that with a little practice 💪🏼
@@holamydailyspanish Hmmmm 🤔
Nope. Still cant roll my rs!! 😢
Ohhh really? 😭😭 Did you feel getting closer to it? You should repeat the exercise you felt got you closer a bit everyday until you get it 🙌🏼
@@holamydailyspanish i wonder can a non spanish speaker really be able to do it!!
@@timmydonlon3458I think you just speed it up when you say it
I can’t do it😂😂😂
Its not working! I hate myself so much😭
"eh gato yo me re paro de mano compa" Will anyone understand what I said? Is Argentina
I don't know what it means 😯
Dora is that u
hahahaha
I can roll, fold, and switch my tongue over. I can even replicate birdsong and create inaudible dog whistles with my tongue on the roof of my mouth. I just can't roll my R, and it is really infuriating!
Ohh you do amazing things, I see! I'm sure you can get this roll with a little practice 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Good luck with that!
Sounds like gargling, when I'm doing a mouth wash,I will pratice,lol.
Hello my dear hope all is well.
I cant do it and now I am sad lol
Don't be sad! If you practice often you will get to pronounce it soon 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@holamydailyspanishI’ve been trying for a few hours still can’t do it
@@holamydailyspanishI can flick and vibrate my tongue but can’t add the r sound
No matter how many tutorials I watch, howany fsmily members that can do it, they try and show me, I still can't do the one thing I need to be able to do to learn this language. 😐
Oh :((( I bet one day you'll get it!! Keep practising every now and then 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
@@holamydailyspanish thank you 🙏💕 (Gracias)
I still can't understand it
Is anyone else’s tongue tired?😅
hahahh YOU CAN 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 cheer up💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Shit just doesn't work fo me lol
Puta madre I hate “R” sound most
😅😅
@@holamydailyspanish I learned that from cutscenes modern warfare 3 - español latino which I am now still watching for my spanish learning 🤣
i'm just trying to say shitty aim
I just love this women. 😍 Makes learning Spanish a lot more fun looking at that beautiful face.
