What it teaches

n and l have pitch too. Put them on the note, not below it sliding up. "Long" has no g after the ng; "all" ends on a light l.

On the note. Not under it

No g. "long", not "long-g"

A light l. The tongue tip

What you sing

  1. Four held words, each n or l on the note.

Singing safely

A loose jaw and an easy tongue: light consonants, never pushed. A medium volume, the middle of your voice. Stop if anything tightens.
