Speech Pattern
Pronunciation notes:
this sound, you should first get your mouth in the position for forming “e”,
but with the middle front rather than the middle back part of the tongue raised.
The other important difference is that the tip of the tongue must be raised and

can both be “wán” and “wánr”. Phonetically, what happens when “er” becomes
suffix is that it drops its “e” and simply becomes “r”, and this “r” is hooked
onto the syllable in question. When a syllable has a front nasal ending “n”,
the “n” is dropped; when a syllable has a back ending “ng”, the “ng” fuses with
