Answer Question
Am I the only one who can't roll their R's?
The subject line says it all. I'm very conscious of my pronunciation, trying to not sound like an American when I'm practicing my Italian, but for the life of me I can't roll my R's! I remember as a child being jealous of my older sister as she effortlessly rolled her own R's. And, in high school, I also had trouble with the dreaded R during 3 years of German. Interestingly I'm able to execute a perfect R roll when I say the word "vorrei", but that's absolutely the ONLY word. Are there others out there that have the same problem, and if so, any advice? :-)
