★★ WHAT THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT★★
In this video we are going to learn about a group of special consonant sounds: trills! They are consonants - not vowels - because there is constriction in the vocal tract during sound production. An active articulator - for example the tip of the tongue - flaps against a passive articulator - for example the alveolar ridge. We use airflow to get the active articulator to vibrate against the passive articulator. This continued flapping or tapping produces a trill sound. You could compare this to a curtain in an open window flapping whenever there is wind moving in from the outside. In contrast to taps like the Flap T sound, the vibration in these special trill sounds is caused by the airstream, not through muscle movement. Although standard English does not contain any trills, I decided to include this video because several of you asked me about these sounds in the comments. If you have a special question or video request, let me know below!
