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!

I watched a TV show illustrating how that stuff is made....marinating anchovies? Who'd a thunk it?

Here in the northeast we pronounce it like:
Wooster Sheer

Sorry I don't know the standard pronunciation symbols.

[merriam-webster.com]

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.

That stuff in the brown bottle.
The stuff, right there, it's right there.
Oh nevermind, ...[gets up & grabs it]

pretty much the same for me.
