great to see you our word today is respirator and a

respirator is a machine for artificial respiration or breathing and they can

also be a type of a mask so to say this word correctly we are going to look at

the four syllables our stressed syllable is syllable one in this word so to say

this word correctly we're going to start with the R sound or for those of you

that struggle with this sound think about square tense lips you don't want

to pucker and you don't want your mouth to be too relaxed you want them to be

square and tense and then the tip of your tongue and either be down or

flipped back it depends on which one works better for you and then we're

going to move to that eh sound your mouth is slightly open for this sound you're

probably going to be able to see the tip of your telling just between your top

and your bottom teeth your mouth is relaxed for that sound and then we're

gonna move to the s ssss your mouth was gonna close a bit and the tip of your

tongue is either going to be behind the top front teeth not touching or pointed

slightly down and the air is going to move out res res res next we're

going to add a very short syllable pa to do this you are just going to press

your lips together and then open them and the air will puff out for that short

uh sound pa so let's try those first two RESPA

RESPA next we have ray like a ray of sunshine and to say ray you are going to

again start with that r sound and then you're going to move to the a for the a

sound your mouth opens and then closes because your tongue is going to move

from low in the mouth to high and flat ray

and then we're going to end with der yes der even though this is spelled

with a T and to do that touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top

front teeth air is going to puff out of your mouth while your voice box is on

vibrating and moving and then we're gonna end again with that er you know

the drill for that square tense lips tongue is either pointed down or flipped

back derp let's try this all together Russ PAH
