The /k/ sound happens twice in the word “cookie” (ku-ki.)
Correct production of the /k/ sound……….
-/k/ is a plosive sound which should be mastered by the age of 2.5/ 3 years old.
-/k/ is produced by pushing air up from the diaphragm and squeezing the back of the tongue and hard palate together at the back of the throat.
-Keep the tip of the tongue down in the front, while expelling a quick burst of air forward out of the mouth.
-Do not use your voice while doing this. /k/ is a voiceless sound.
- Use a mirror to ensure proper placement of the tongue tip.
