How do you fake a lisp?

Practice saying the sound by itself.

For instance, you might say "sssssss," as though you're hissing like a snake. To do this, blow air through your teeth, being sure to keep your tongue back away from the teeth. Do this several times, until it sounds like a clear /s/ sound.

How do speech therapists make an S sound?

The /s/ sound is made by placing the tip of your tongue just behind the front teeth, very close to the roof of the mouth but not touching it. The sides of the tongue are raised to touch the roof of the mouth, leaving a passage for air down the middle of the tongue.

What is a palatal lisp?

A palatal lisp occurs when the tongue raises up and touches the roof of the mouth, also called the soft palate. While this type of lisp is not as common, it can make it hard to pronounce the /s/ and /z/ sounds.

What is an interdental lisp?

An interdental (frontal) lisp occurs when the tongue sticks out between the front teeth. This error makes /s/ and /z/ sound like “th” (e.g., yeth/yes). A lateral lisp occurs when air escapes over the sides of the tongue. A lateral lisp often sounds “wet” or “slushy” because you can hear the sounds of saliva.

It's never too late to see a speech therapist as an adult. Some SLPs claim that with dedicated practice, a lisp may be corrected in as little as a couple of months. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment can take a bit longer, so consistency is key.

Is a lisp a disability?

What is it called when you can't say r?

Rhotacism is a speech impediment that is defined by the lack of ability, or difficulty in, pronouncing the sound R. Some speech pathologists, those who work with speech impediments may call this impediment de-rhotacization because the sounds don't become rhotic, rather they lose their rhotic quality.

Where do you put tongue for S sound?

To make the /s/ sound:

To make /s/, place the tip of your tongue lightly against the ridge behind your upper teeth (but do not touch the teeth). As you push air out of your mouth, squeeze the air between the tip of your tongue and the top of your mouth.
