    Master Chinese "zh ch sh r" | Pronunciation Training

    • Curl your tongue.

    • Let the tip of your tongue point to this position where the picture shows. (Your tongue will be a

    little bit close to the roof of your mouth, but not quite touching it.)

    • Let the air go out through your mouth to voice out.

    • Curl your tongue.

    • Let the tip of your tongue touch the position I point out.

    • Start to let the air go through your mouth.

    • Your tongue is sticking to the position I point out, so the air can not go out.

    • Let the tip of your tongue go down a little and let the air out.

    • Tongue position: Same with “zh ㄓ”.

    • Exhale more strongly.

    • Tongue position: Same with “sh ㄕ”.

    • Use your vocal cords and vibrate stronger.
