[Facts] Just try and say it

Try saying an ordinary English word like "look", "back" or "tricky". First with as short K-sound as possible and then with a longer K-sound. With a longer K-sound you just linger longer on the K.

I learned my lesson well.
You see you can’t please everyone
So you got to please yourself."

•I did! I always thought, K was an explosive sound. But I realise that making explosions last longer may cause some difficulties … nt · Andy ;—) · 4/5/2006, 6:24 AM
