Can you explain the difference between how we pronounce /l/ and /r/?
/l/ is formed with the tip of the tongue in the same position as /n/, /t/, and /d/.
	The sides of the tongue do not touch the sides of your mouth, as they do for /d/
/r/ is the “opposite”: the sides of the tongue touch the sides of your mouth, but the tip doesn’t
	(The tip of the tongue is curved back into the mouth for /r/.)
- Another difference for /r/ is that the lips are usually rounded when we say it, like for /w/.

/t/ and /d/ are flapped if they occor after a vowel and before an unstressed vowel.
A fleet athleet - the ‘t’ in “fleet” is not flapped.
A fleet of ships - the ‘t’ in “fleet” is flapped.
