Yes, it can. The widespread belief that rhotacism can only be corrected in childhood is mistaken. The articulatory apparatus and the brain retain plasticity throughout life. And adults even have an advantage — awareness.
Why it is often easier for adults than for children
An adult understands why classes are needed, is able to control their actions, hear themselves, and analyze. This significantly speeds up progress compared to children who practice "because mom said so."
Where to start
The first step is a consultation with a speech therapist. The specialist will conduct a diagnosis to determine the cause of burring:
- Anatomical features: a short tongue frenulum, malocclusion, weakness of the tongue muscles.
- Functional causes: incorrect articulation established since childhood, impaired phonemic hearing (inability to distinguish between [r] and [l]).
- Other factors: the influence of bilingualism in the family, consequences of injuries or illnesses.
How the correction method is selected
Depending on the cause, a correction method is selected. Sometimes speech therapy exercises are sufficient. In some cases, work with a psychologist or other specialists is required.
