Then do the same for the single "r" sound. That's how I did it - everybody CAN do it, it's just a questgion of practice.

English speakers write it as ''kh'' (sometimes ''ch'') so plz don't pronounce ''jose'' like ''hose'', because it's wrong. I think this sound is the one you should worry about not rolling your ''r''. you listen to it being said really a lot and you’ll get it eventually!

one Spanish tip: the spanish ”j” (and ”g” when followed by ”i” or ”e”) is NOT NOT NOT like the ”h” in ”hause”, it is a distict sound ,that resembles in no way that English ”h” , and does NOT exist in English.
it’s like the ”ch” in the German word ”bach”, it sounds as if you have a phlegm in your mouth and your about to spit it. English speakers write it as ”kh” (sometimes ”ch”)

so plz don’t pronounce ”jose” like ”hose”, because it’s wrong.
I think this sound is the one you should worry about not rolling your ”r”.
