Some preliminary speech clarity exercises



Hill[1] (no year), in his compilation “That Sounds Better!” suggests the proper learning and practice of the following sentences as relevantly selected by this scribe.


It has recommended that practice should be done with awareness of the moments of the speech organs and watching their movements standing in front of a mirror.


At least 5 hour of staggered vocal workouts or exercises should be one to train the speech organs under the supervision of a voice trainer, speech therapist or linguist as a coach.


Here the sentences or word-clusters for practice


1. Vee-voo-vah-vay

2. Fee-foo-fah-fay

3. She-shoo-shah-shay

4. Zee-zoo-zah-zay

5. Pleasure-measure-leisure

6. Illusion-delusion-confusion-version-vision

7. Forge-fortress-forge-force

8. What-why-when-where-wither-weather

9. Five fine fancy fowls flew fearfully for France

10. Vile voile veils are avoided by Vera very vocally

11. She sowed six six slender saplings

12. The shad, shark, and other ocean fish are fresh

13. The buzzing bees farmers furnished fresh fish for the fair

14. The buzzing bees buzzed along the zig-zag path in the zoo
