Baffling problem of 'R'

[veer_yodhaa]

Hello, Professors and my friends-

From past few days i have been searching the appropriate answer for my problem with 'R' (Mentioned below) but in the end i was not able to get a suitable answer from any one

My problem is- As i am an indian, we indian's prefer queens language which i think is almost similar to the British accent-

I am a strict follower of British accent---

whenever i tend to communicate i skip the 'R' from sentences (my 'r' is not very prominent)

for example-
1) There are arrogant people
and i spell it as- dhea aa arrogant people (here i skipped 'r' from 'there' & 'are')

2) they shall pay for it
and i spell it as- dhey shall pay fo it. (here i have not pronounced 'r' in 'for')

but i give special attention to spell 'r' in words like 'prominent'/ 'promiscuous ' in such word i pronounce 'r'.

and whenever i try to pronounce 'r' it comes out so rhotic and in a harsh manner that in the end it does not sound professional.

i would like to know whether it is acceptable speaking as per the above given sentences- especially in service industry (Because i work in one)?

is it acceptable world wide? or will people make a fool out of me when i will tend to speak in such manner?



Please assist me on the same- Teachers and students

Your's affectionately,

Perhaps I am biased as I am an American and therefore a rhotic speaker, but I don't think that pronouncing "r" sounds harsh or unprofessional.

Respected Madam,

Ok, but when i take efforts to pronounce 'r'- i gradually trill my 'r' in such a way that i sound very pathetic and naff.

And Miss. can u suggest some help in regards of the very first post of mine?
I shall be thankful to you..........

In sentence ''they shall pay for it'', R in FOR has to be pronounced, or al least more stressed than in ''There are arrogant people'' (THERE, ARE).
Don't be discouraged just beacuse you aren't able to pronounce R as good as you want. You have to practice!!!
Try to ''roll'' your tongue and find the most suitable position to pronounce it.
