words are flu the virus and flew to fly so let's go ahead and jump right in

let's start with this two letter combination we've had this several times

in the past few weeks during these short short two for Tuesday lessons and what I

want you to remember always when you see two consonant sounds together is you

make that combination smoothly with no break in between and no extra vowel we

do not say Fa Lou we just say flu so to make this combination nice and smooth

think about saying that F sound you can do that air is moving out of your mouth

and you can bite gently the inside or the outside of your lip just make sure

you allow space to let the air move out of your mouth as you do this keep your

mouth in that same position relatively you're going to open it slightly and

then touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth so fl

fl fl the mistake I see which leads to people adding the vowels they say fa

Lou and they have too much mouth movement for that so try to move your

mouth a little bit less fl fl fl and that should help and then end with

the ew vowel super easy one pucker your lips your tongue will be flat in the

middle of your mouth and then let's put that all together flu flu flu also

remember make sure that that vowel at the end is long enough another mistake

that I hear is people make it too short and it sounds like flu all right so

let's do a sentence after she flew across country she came down with the

flu after she flew across country she came

down with the flu give it a try people are going to notice the difference if
