    I've been at this a good week literally all day while I'm home just doing whatever and finally it clicked on how to actually make the sound! You have to push the breath behind your furthest molar on one side which ends up vibrating the back of your mouth and creating a bubble in your cheek. I've been attempting to master the sound and it's getting better. Forming the letters is rough I'm still puzzled on how to make the letters but will keep practicing. I appreciate the video!

    I can make the duck sound but I can't shape them to actual letters. I just sound like a choking Donald Duck.

    I wonder... if babies listen to your speech/accent/pronunciation etc... as they grow, in order to learn to speak; if you were to always speak like Donald Duck when around a baby, would they sound like Donald Duck when they start speaking ?

      Currently studying linguistics... And as far as I understand, yes they will, as far they are not exposed to anyone else, but probably they'll develop easier ways to sound alike, and still understandable

    I actually know a guy that uses this for his normal voice. I know it's hard to believe! He lost his vocal cords due to cancer when he was a kid and was never able to speak normally. This is what he came up with, and it works really well. He's been doing it his whole life, so he's really good at it. I had no problem understanding him the first time I met him. I was a bit shocked at first though

    I came here hoping to figure out how to sing as Donald, because the closest I can manage is something that sounds like Donald speaking a melody while a 2nd person sings it.

    I can sing the merry Xmas and Happy birthday song and the kids love it.
    It’s also a perfect way to quieter an angry child in a supermarket.
