learn how to roll my Rs

I’m still working on it, but I was told that repeating the sentence “a pot of tea” would help. Well, I’m from New Jersey, and I dont know about anyone else – but here we would pronounce that “a podda tea.” Practice saying that over and over again and catching the position your tongue is in while you say “podda.” Repeating it a lot and working on the tongue rolling will make it sound like “para ti” in spanish. So I think I’ll try this out for awhile.

Bascially I’m a polish/ukrainian who cant roll her R’s. that posts a huge problem. I dont speak either fluently, but i try to learn…and fail. I’ve been studying spanish for years though, and am basically fluent in that…aside from the fact that i cant roll my r’s. how wonderful. its often that one word is mistaken for another, i.e. “pero” and “perro” sound the same coming out of my mouth. sophomore year of high school i gave a presentation on the king penguin in spanish class, and my teacher couldnt understand me when i said king (“rey”). ¿pinguino que? very embarrassing.
