Using the phrase "being on spectrum"
I've heard the phrase "being on spectrum" a lot in everyday conversations. But the thing is, It feels like this could be offensive to people who have autism.

Is that considered disrespectful?

Am/Can English: Is the "r" before vowels the same as the "r" after vowels?
Growing up, I didn't have to pronounce the "r" after vowels. Now, I live in the US and I am having a hard time pronouncing the "r" after vowels, such as "earn" I have no problem pronouncing the "r" before vowels, such as "real". I looked up in Marriam Webster and noticed the phonetic symbols for r in "real" and "earn" are the same. So, I just roll my tongue a little bit? That's it?
Trouble pronouncing "the other"
I was practicing my pronunciation like usual, but eventually I had to say: "I killed the other Maurice" And I just constantly stutter when trying to say: "the other" quickly. I just don't understand how your tongue is supposed to go from the "TH" formation to the "O" and then to "THR" so quickly without stuttering. Any tips?
