2023.02.26 – 0787 – Tongue Fun


The Tongue

Your tongue is a major articulator helping form sounds into recognisable words (as well as being used in swallowing and eating). It moves courtesy of eight muscles: four intrinsic muscles run along its length and change and the shape of the tongue (lengthening and shortening it, curling and uncurling its tip and edges as in tongue rolling, and flattening and rounding its surface), and four extrinsic muscles change its position (for protrusion, retraction, and side-to-side movement).

The main articulator bends and shapes sounds to create understandable words, from complex car-deal criteria to mouthfuls of medical manuscripts so it’s important to be dextrous and strong.
