Does "hurry" come out sounding like "urry"?

The H is one of the most commonly dropped sounds in English.

Here's what to know: the H in HURRY should be a soft puff of air.

It shouldn’t feel like it requires a lot of muscular effort, so we don’t want dramatic diaphragm movement.

Just gentle airflow!

I do want you to exaggerate on the R, on the other hand, because a lot of learners feel self-conscious about the English R and soften it too much. Let it be strong and full.
