Is my tongue too long?!
Question:
Is my tongue too long?
Just wondering, when normal ppl relax their tongue(like usual), does your tongue touch the teeth in front of you? When I relax my toungue, it tends to push against the teeth or touch it slightly, is it normal? I start to feel little bit uncomfortable, like bounded to something.
When I say words like "floor" "fly", I tend to touch my front teeth a bit with the L sound(not on purpose, just when it touches the roof, it touches the teeth sometimes too, I think causes my toungue is pushed a bit more forward than others), is it normal? Or should ordinary toungue never even close to touch the teeth at all when pronouncing these words?
I think mayb I developed a bad habit of pushing the tongue foward by practising the "TH" too much, also I mistakenly replace all the "t" with hard "th" sound, that ruins my tongue's structure, that it tends to be more forward all the time. But still I am not too sure if i am. Please help me answer the above, so I can compare. Thank you very very much.
Answers:
O.k. you made me think and mine touches my teeth when I'm just relaxed and I tried saying the words/sounds and mine does then also so its not just you and I don't have a long tongue.
