Jose

I have a hard time pronouncing "rty" as in party, thirty, dirty, I pronounce; patty, thiry, diry. Thanx for helping.

Why did you name this topic 'Jose' ?!

Probably because he accidentally put his name first, the way you would in a post.

I suppose you could try saying these words slowly -- par-tee, dir-tee, etc., until you get used to saying both the R and the T.
