Experiment with the pronunciation of vowel sounds, word endings -iny, -ngat, -ool, and intonation patterns

Practise reading familiar and new words out aloud and notice which speech organs are being used to produce sounds, such as lips, tongue and voice box, for example:

• practise the retroflex sounds, feel tongue
  • -rd- like saying d with tip of tongue turned back
  • -rl- like saying l with tip of tongue turned back
  • -rn- like saying n with tip of tongue turned back
  • -rt- like saying t with tip of tongue turned back

Continue to practise sounding syllables

Classify words into syllable groups, such as one, two, three, three+ syllables; for example:

• two syllables
  • dje  na,
  • win  dji,
  • moo  rditj
