I used to have a lot of trouble saying words with s, sh, z, ch, and others when I was younger. I wasn't until I got braces and had them taken off when I was able to say these sounds without much difficulties. Sometimes the way your teeth comes together does have an effect on how you talk. It's a thought. I do have trouble saying words sometimes such as Yosemite. I thought it was two syllable but it was actually four!!! (Yo Si Mi Tee (i's are short)) I would say it as Yos mite. hehe.. gotta love the deaf accent.
