I’m 30 and I’ve watched maybe 12 vids this week on lisp trying to fix it and This video helped so much, definitely one of the best videos on TH-cam to fix a lisp. Thank you so much!
im 16 and for the first time in my life, i experienced prounouncing the s correctly! Thank you soo much i'll be practicing this everyday i'm so exited!
so i went from a frontal lisp as a child, training myself out of that, and into a lateral lisp where i bite my tongue if i speak too quickly. today my acting peers said they didn't even know i had a lisp, so that's a huge win right there, but biting my tongue still hurts
Ouch, biting the tongue is one strategy I haven't encountered. You could try squeezing the tongue (by itself don't use your fingers) to make it 'slimmer' for those sounds... 12 muscles in the tongue 👅 💪 let's make them work
I put on braces a year ago and developed a lisp to the letter S so this is really a life saver since sometimes I get made fun of for it and I’ve stopped raising my hand in class or being a chatty person over it so so thank you🙏
@@oaaosgenesis you're so welcome, remember it will take time to shape into all words and positions of the words. With time and practice you will master this new sound 🙌
Currently doing the exercise everyday. The "thh" sound definitely sounds better than my lateral lisp, but I have a hard time forming words and sentences. It sounds very forced and especially words that end with an "s" kind of fall flat. However, practice makes perfect so I keep trying
@@arsenjudoka3354 haha okay but seriously your tongue may be either too far forward or bunching up too high at the middle part. The air needs to flow without obstruction of the tongue.
My problem is my S sounds like it does when you speak, it makes almost a whistle or a hiss. I had a jaw injury years ago and it changed the orientation of my teeth.
@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT my school had different speech therapist in my elementary and i started in 4th grade but the only good one was the therapist i got in 6th grade who really helped me and by the end of 6th grade i was good to go, also this lisp is common on my mom side of the family, some of my cousins had it as well
i'm 17 and i dont have this lisp but i think my S sounds are sooooo harsh English is not my first language, but i can speak English without a scottish+british accent, it doesnt seem to bother other ppl bc they say i speak well and quite ~posh~ but it bothers me... esp when i hear myself in recordings. do you think you can do a video on this? how to soften this S sound and not sound so snakey?
It depends if the strong s sound is due to lots of air, too much pressure, or tongue placement. I consult online via telehealth with a booking available through www.growandtelltherapy.com.au
I’m 14 and I like this technique. But I feel like when I use this sound to talk it sounds silly. Could you try to explain how to use this sound in a sentence? I feel like this might be a hard thing to explain so I’m sorry if it is
I have tried this method so long now. And there is still something wrong, and I can't really get my head around how to get rid of the last little wispery sound even after putting the toung where it should be
@@HenrikHolm-uv4iu what shape are your lips in when you make the sound? Also make sure there's enough space for the air to come through the front. Meaning have your tongue pulled back so air can flow properly and not make a loud sound.
@GrowandTellSpeechandOT Not really sure, I guess when I am training I try to smile, I have tried to put it at different places, but don't seem to get the right sound. Not sure if it's because of my toung not lifting it enough on the sides since I can't really control my toung, like I can only control the movement of the tip to make it move. The rest of the muscle moves by itself.
@@HenrikHolm-uv4iu without seeing you on telehealth or in person i can't give specific advice, however, it sounds like the sides of your tongue are not 'Sealing' a firm barrier against your top teeth to prevent the air leaking out the sides. There should be a firm hold with the sides of your tongue 👅. I like to give my clients with this issue a practice of putting jelly on their tongue in the middle and lifting their tongue on the sides so the jelly doesn't fall out, and you also can't simply squash it to the roof of your mouth or the jelly will be squished too... there should be space between the tongue and roof of the mouth but Sealing the sides. Then the tip is lowered slightly to let the 'S' airflow out.
Hello, I am a speech therapist working in Turkey. I taught this method to my client, and it turned out to be very successful. However, the success is limited to producing the “S” sound in isolation. When I try to move to syllables, such as saying “sa” or “se,” the client struggles and is unsuccessful. What should I do?
@@randomedits5714 have you got a mentor who can work with you? In Australia we have to have professional development every year to stay registered with our association. There are also articulation therapy books 📚 which outline articulation placement. One is Speech Sound Disorders. There may be different ones in the Turkish Language.
This profession is still developing in Turkey. Actually, not everything is fully established yet. Yes, we do have an association, but unfortunately, we don’t have any mentors. I graduated as a therapist about 4 months ago, and unfortunately, there are still moments when I don’t know what to do. In such moments, I either email my professors from university or ask the supervisors I interned with. When I saw this video, I also wanted to ask you.
@randomedits5714 I see, that's understandable. Look up The Butterfly approach to lateral lisps. It is very helpful. There's also a great speech pathologist called Bec "Adventures In Speech Pathology" who teaches articulation. We were in the same class at university. She is very knowledgeable. Congratulations on graduating 🎓👏
Hiya I’m a teen from the UK and your videos have helped me so much with my lisp subsequently helped me so much social anxiety! I especially love the exploding T technique however I have one issue, what technique would you recommend for pronouncing the x and k sound properly with a lisp, as it makes a really gushy sound with my lisp when I try and say it??
@@LaurenMcCarthy-l9m glad to hear it's been helping you. I'm perplexed as the k sound is made at the back of the tongue (not the front or sides (where a lisp can take place). I'm putting together an online e short course to help people, would that be something you'd be interested in?
@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT yeah it’s almost as if the gushy sound comes from the back of my mouth unlike a frontal lisp where it’s coming from the tongue sticking out the teeth, it’s more so the S and X sound that’s hard to pronounce and yes I would be interested in the course!
@@LaurenMcCarthy-l9m it sounds like a lateral lisp on the affricates which can also take place. This can also be shaped so air stops escaping through the sides (the gushy/slushy sound). I'm thinking of the videos on a private TH-cam account 🤔 will keep you posted
Hi I really hope you can help me! I'm not sure if this is normal but when I pronounce the s sound it only comes out of my right side, which creates this lisp but It doesn't sound like any of the speech therapists when they do an example of a lateral lisp (because the airflow only comes out of one side). I was wondering if this is normal and if you think I could correct this? When I pronounce the s sound my tongue touches the roof of my mouth and goes to the left, which is why the airflow comes out of the right. I have tried a few correcting activities and they all help but it's hard to then use the new way of saying the s in a sentence :( I'm 18 and really insecure about this and now that I am at university and have a job and do presentations I get so insecure and just want it gone ahhhhh. In england we can get speech therapists for free on our health service so I am going to try and get a referral!! Thank you
Thanks for sharing, yes most certainly can shape the way your tongue and airflow are creating the S sound in words. It does take time and small steps, however very achievable. See how you go with a referral. If you get stuck you can book online with me www.growandtelltherapy.com.au
A bit early the concepts explained typically are understood by 4 year olds. Also lisps can naturally 'correct' at 4 years. I also know adults with mild lateral lisps and they aren't the least phased 👍
Try making the T sound while the tip of your tongue presses up against the back of your lower front teeth, it’ll be impossible but you’ll make a kind of S sound. Then you work on refining it.
Yes there is. Have you been to a Speech pathologist? I'm creating a short set of videos to accompany homework practice and the steps it takes to shape a lisp to a clear s
Does your tongue come out when you say 's'? Have you access to a Speech pathologist? You're lucky as you're old enough to practice independently once you have the right strategies
Would you suggest any other specific “new sounds” or would it be best to stick with /t/ and /d/ as a way to help to eventually produce /s/ and /z/? Thanks!!!
That's one strategy I use. Another one is the "butterfly technique" where the sides of the tongue go up and the tip straight (like a butterfly shape in the mouth) so the air can flow over the tongue for the /s/
It's okay and it does take time for adults as you've had that motor pattern for several decades. Is it helpful if I do another video for the next steps? Realistically it takes weeks and months however the time will pass anyway.
Have you tried the above exercise. What did you notice? Are you able to move your tongue to make a single s. There's another technique in case air is still coming out the sides of your mouth/side of tongue. There's several steps to take and it takes time.
Do you mean your sounds collapse and it's hard for someone to hear what you're saying? Or you try and put the words together but can't find the right words?
❤️🥰 Thats lovely to hear, thank you. I guess Every parent does the best with the tools they have. Simple, I know. I'm grateful to the hundreds of families over the decades who helped me become a better person and mum (Aussie spelling) 🙏
@@CryptoNinja38 it's a step by step process, if you Compare learning how to play the piano... you need practice every day to create the motor pattern and muscle memory to be able subconsciously make those sounds automatically 👌 I'm making a short course if you're interested
@@lioneagle8438 it's never too late to change the way you pronounce your words. Obviously you'll want to get support as it can take a few months for Generalisation to take place. Do you have a local speech pathologist you can work with?
@GrowandTellSpeechandOT I did some speech classes when I was really young but I gave up. Cause it felt like whatever I did it wasn't working:( and honestly I don't really know where to start to find any speech therapist and I don't know if I qualify anymore to get help to overcome it....
@lioneagle8438 that's understandable. Lateral lisps are not every speech pathologists special area and that's okay. Were you able to get a clear 's' from following the video? If so that's a clear sign you can progress. If not, it's just a matter of tongue placement. Practising each day is where having a therapist comes in handy and keeps you accountable
@@GrowandTellSpeechandOT this is kinda stupid lol but I thought about saving up for surgery to fix my voice/lateral lisp... But I wanna be completely sure it would work too, And yeah I'll keep practicing more with ur video, thx for ur helpful video btw:)!!!

Sorry to hear, you deserve better. ❤️ If it doesnt bother you, you do you there's nothing "wrong " with a lisp many people have them and it's 100% okay
There are other ways, I'll add that to the video list, there's a short lag of a few weeks, but should be up then (as always consult with your in-person speech pathologist for research-based support to progress through speech and language goals)
You can always learn to re-shape speech sounds if you're interested, you don't have to sound perfect so if you feel your sounds are clear for you then no need to change ;)
Ok, so I hate this part of my voice. Everyone on our development team have it, my boss has it, our junior dev has it I call it the nerd lisp... my gay roomate has it as well. I heard a recording of myself talking and it kinda sounds gay, and I really feel this part of my speech just doesnt line up with me and I feel its gonna scare all the women away. Im very masculinine, 6ft tall, 190lbs and then I have slushy S's. 😂 heeeellllllllp. Its not that bad like Ice Age... heyy guyysthhs, wanna get sshhome ischcreams?
At any point anyone can change elements of their physical articulatory movements, and solidify these over time into generalised speech. Most likely being around peers has influenced your communication style. In Sydney we have inflection going up at the end of a sentence and inserting "like" often. It's frustrating I hear you. It can be worked on if you really wish to shape that part of communication.
@@user-pb9qs4cz4e that's a Great question, I'm putting a short course together to explain. However if you can see a speech pathologist in-person that is recommended.

You can always learn to re-shape speech sounds if you're interested, you don't have to sound perfect so if you feel your sounds are clear for you then no need to change ;)
Ok, so I hate this part of my voice. Everyone on our development team have it, my boss has it, our junior dev has it I call it the nerd lisp... my gay roomate has it as well.
I heard a recording of myself talking and it kinda sounds gay, and I really feel this part of my speech just doesnt line up with me and I feel its gonna scare all the women away. Im very masculinine, 6ft tall, 190lbs and then I have slushy S's. 😂 heeeellllllllp. Its not that bad like Ice Age... heyy guyysthhs, wanna get sshhome ischcreams?
At any point anyone can change elements of their physical articulatory movements, and solidify these over time into generalised speech. Most likely being around peers has influenced your communication style. In Sydney we have inflection going up at the end of a sentence and inserting "like" often. It's frustrating I hear you. It can be worked on if you really wish to shape that part of communication.
I really what to be good in english.
😢 Please 🙏
I am 20

@@user-pb9qs4cz4e that's a Great question, I'm putting a short course together to explain. However if you can see a speech pathologist in-person that is recommended. In Australia it's around 200 for an appointment so understandably it's not budget-friendly for a teenager 🙏 is that the same where you live?
I like lisps. That's okay it's just my personal preference. Thank you for the support.🙂
In Australia some news presenters have lisps. 👍
I’m 40 though 😆
