Confusing Consonants Drills… Visually following and being aware of the mouth’s movements is the key to improve listening and clear pronunciation. Japanese speakers of English in particular get stuck on the L and R sounds, and easily get confused, causing many embarrassing and awkward moments.

‘The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long.’ is a quote from the 1982, Ridley Scott movie, Blade Runner.

This phrase contains several L and R sounds. Yesterday, we practiced reading this quote aloud in Junior High School classes with great success after doing word pair drills.
