I can do them all actually and they sound decent, but damm fitting them into easy sentences (next lessons) is damm hard, I mean your tongue simply starts to hurt heh.
Matter of getting used to it and practise I guess.

i find it ironic that "i dont understand" is like impossible to pronounce
i think i'll stick with good old "huh?"

i can make all those click sounds (though debatable on how accurate i sound compared to theirs...) but i can't figure out how to put together the click and the word sounds together...
+ Show Spoiler +

/ is like making a "kiss" sound but using your tongue and upper teeth instead of your lips... uhh... have your tongue pressing against the back of your upper teeth while smiling, and open your mouth while pulling away your tongue forcefully upward

! is like the click most people can do which is pretty having your tongue at the top of your mouth, creating a vacuum behind it, and clicking it straight downward. your mouth is shaped like an 'O'

# is like ! but your mouth is halfway closed and lips/teeth are kind of smiling

// is like / and ! combined where your tongue is at the top of your mouth with a vacuum behind but you're forcefully and quickly pulling it backwards

does this make sense? am i accurate? you can also click different pitches by changing your mouth from an O to a smile


edit: "It's a pity" = "homie" or "homie, k"
