Something I’ve always wanted to do with my tongue is to be able to tie a cherry stem with it.

I tried the other day and it seemed impossible. Surely people are utilising teeth to do it? Someone please give some hints/tips/cheat codes to be able to do this please

In secret tie one with your fingers and hide it somewhere in your mouth. Then tell everyone you’re going to tie the cherry thing and put an untied one in your mouth. Now swallow the untied one and release the hidden tied one. This is 100% how the magicians do it.

Yes.
Pretty sure we spent half lesson just doing that in a GCSE Spanish class.

Can you share any tips?

Had never really thought about it.
I guess you get the tip of your tongue behind your front teeth and just go for it?

i can. i have trouble with L’s sometimes tho (not rolling them obvs, just in general). sometimes i pronounce them weird or if there’s a lot or prominent L’s in a word i struggle. i think the reason is that my accent is mostly in the back of my throat, so my L’s tend to sound like im gargling a bit unless i concentrate on it
