I have trouble with "sixths".

My children's optometrist is a place called "Tropical Optical". I can't do it.

Stumbled on this tongue twister in the wild. It's freaking impossible.

Soldier shoulder surgery.

Months. The S after the TH as in THink vs THe, is difficult.

Native English speaker here. Aside from catching crap for regional accent differences, I didn't have any noticeable, repeating problems until COVID. I can't, for the life of me, properly pronounce comorbidity. Even when I really concentrate on it, it tends to come out as comorbibity. It really makes me sound stupid as hell.

I'm from the American Southeast. I speak with a tarheel drawl. To listen to me speak, you'd think the word "rural" has four Rs in it. Rrrrl.

You could always claim you learned English from Irish English speakers: they commonly substitute dental frictives with the plosives, so /th/ with /t/ or /d/.

My sister can't say sea minerals without it sounding like semen roll.

I can not wrap my tounge around ambulance while in a sentence.
So as an Aussie I just call them ambos.

I used to find words that had the letter R followed by an L difficult. Like girl, world, etc. They're still a bit tongue twisty tbh

When I was younger I read and listened to a lot of English but didn't speak too much. It took me years to get a better hang of "Three" and "Free".

February. I'm happy I don't have to say it often.

Grew up in the US (the Deep South)… moved to England, have been here for like a bajillion years and unfortunately still sound American 😕

But for me it is crisps. Why do we have to say this word when it is so awkward?!?

Any combination of "th" and "s". Like "months", " clothes", etc.

English speaker - corollary.

non native here

girl, world, rivalry

in ascending difficulty, i generally find soft Rs hard to say, tho after a few years, it became easier

"Assthedick"

Now you'll never forget.

As a native english speaker, obsequious.

Australian here and with my bigan arse accent I struggle to pronounce the word "regularly"

I break it up to much when I read it into reg-u-lar-ly

If i say it is just roll through the last have and get regurrrly

"probably" is awkward for me. I used to drop the b's and pronounce it "pro'ly", but now I make the effort to use "likely" instead

"Phthalates"

Legislative.

The ones with "ch", the laboratory coworkers laugh when I pronounce "chemistry"

I am becoming more convinced that I should have been a voice actor......

Paw and Poor sounds like the same word in my dialect, so I have to put in effort to switch to Received Pronunciation when I need to differentiate

Non-native but spent a lot of my life living in English-speaking contexts. I know how to pronounce it, but my tongue seems to like tripping up over "hospital".

I have pretty much no split between four and thaw. Can’t even hear the difference when someone else does it.

Hierarchy...

I don't know why but "drawer" was a word that was difficult for me to pronounce. In specific the 'aw' sometimes I say it as dr-awe-re other times i pronounce it as d-roar I don't know why it's strange to prononounce.

For me, probably "specific" and "interdisciplinary"

i used to have difficulty pronouncing the "th" sound as a child too. i would use the same accent my parents did when they used it in words like "three" and i can remember celebrating the moment i realized that i said the number "three" correctly, naturally and without a thought.

ever since then, i've struggled with NOT pronouncing the "th" sound when i speak words that require the hard rolling-r sound like in the spanish word "tres", so go figure. lol

Czech has this special Ř sound, which is somewhere between a rolling R and the S in vision (/ˈvɪʒən/). I'm learning Czech as a fifth language, so while I can pronounce it standalone or at the start of a word it takes all my focus to manage mid-word.

Everything is difficult (I'm from Spain).

Sphere or Sphincter

+1 for "th". I'm from germany and it's like impossible to pronounce for me.
