Practice Tip:
You can also use this list repeatedly with an instructor. Your
instructor writes down a list of answers, then speaks the words to you.
You write your answers and see if they match. You can also reverse this
to check your pronunciation: you write down a set of answers, then
speak, and see if your instructor was able to hear you correctly.
Review the L Sound: Watch a Video. Review the R sound: Watch a Video.
