did you know that it is physically impossible to say “rough” while sticking your tongue out?

@charlotte@akko.chir.rs I can pull it off but it sounds like the most stereotypical German saying RRRRRAFFFF

it's because the word "rough" contains a voiced retroflex approximant (pronounced with the tip of the tongue curled up) and a voiceless labiodental fricative (pronounced with the upper teeth touching the lower lip, blocking the tongue); both of which are physically incompatible with sticking your tongue out. hope this helps!
