The “R” Sound
One of the latest developing sounds , often not mastered until ages 6–7.
Requires precise tongue placement: the tongue either bunches up toward the back (bunched R) or curls slightly upward (retroflex R).
Children may substitute R with W (“wabbit” for “rabbit”) or omit it in blends (“ca” for “car”).
Fun fact: There are over 30 variations of the /r/ in English depending on the vowel (like in “car,” “ear,” “air,” “or”). That’s why it can be so stubborn!
The “S” Sound
Typically develops earlier, around 4–5 years old.
Needs precise airflow down the middle of the tongue while keeping the sides sealed with the teeth.
Common errors:
Lisping (tongue comes too far forward: “thun” for “sun”)
Distorted /s/ (air escapes on the sides, sounding “slushy”)
Fun fact: S is called a sibilant because of its hissing quality, and it’s one of the most frequent sounds in English words!
