Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.And yes...I also suffered...and still do...being tongue-tied.
The workarounds are simply to conscientiously slow down and speak more slowly.
Thats kind of why I love posting here...it allows you time to organize your thoughts.
Especially about pronouncing Worcestershire sauce!

If they intended for us to call it by its proper name, they would have given it an easier name to pronounce.
The best vocal exercise is the epiglottal plosive or stop involving closure by the aryepiglottic pharyngeal stricture mechanism.
Quickly repeat "he bumped it, he bumped it, he bumped it".
Do it now.
You know you want to.
ps. Went to the fridge to check the ingredients in the wooz ta sher sorse and stood there with the door open wondering what thefsm was I doing in the fridge.
