How to Produce the “SH” Sound
In order to say a correct “SH” sound, how the tongue is positioned in the mouth is extremely important. The tongue should be in a neutral position in the mouth - level, and not too high or too low. The sides of the back of the tongue should touch the insides of the top back molars. This is a good way to determine if the tongue is at the right level. The tongue tip should point towards the front teeth, and sit just slightly behind the two front teeth.
Once the tongue is in this position, round the lips and blow air over the tongue. This is what makes the “SH” sound! Try it yourself.
