Lisa,

 

I am finding this very facinating - at my last dentist appointment they told
me I had a tongue tie.  I didn't notice (I can lick an ice cream cone, but
when I stuck out my tongue while looking in the mirror I noticed it is very
short).  For my entire life there are many words I can not pronouce -
parenthesis comes to mind right away.  I have always been embarrassed by
this and comment it's because I have heard Spanish for much of my life so
English can be a problem.  I also have only been able to roll my R's for the
last few years (as have some other relatives).  Now it makes sense it's the
tongue restriction.  So when I talk to groups as I mispronounce words I tell
them it's because I have a slight tongue tie.
