Steps
Method 1 of 2: Sound like Donald Duck
Step 1. Place your tongue on the roof of the mouth
Open your teeth slightly. Position your tongue so that the top lightly touches the roof of your mouth.
Step 2. Turn your tongue slightly to the right or left
Choose the direction that is most comfortable for you. Place the side of your tongue slightly within the space between your upper and lower teeth.
Step 3. Press your tongue
Push your tongue against the inside of your teeth on the side of your mouth. Use enough pressure so that the tongue stays in contact with the teeth but keep it loose enough so that you can push the air between your tongue and teeth.
Step 4. Vibrate your tongue
Blow air and direct it towards the cheek where your tongue is. Use your cheek to push air through the space behind your teeth or between your teeth and your tongue. When you push the air in correctly, you will hear a high-pitched, hoarse sound.
- Try pushing the air through different spaces between your tongue and teeth until you find a good spot. It may be difficult to produce the sound consistently at first, but keep trying. Mastering this voice will require strengthening certain muscles in your mouth that you are not used to using to speak.
- Be patient. It took the actor who currently plays Donald Duck a full year of training to get the voice right.
Step 5. Form words as you would with your own voice
You must do most of the work to change your voice with your mouth, not your vocal cords. If you feel any pain in your throat, you should take a break. Talking like Donald Duck, especially trying a long tirade, takes a lot of air and can make you feel dizzy. Even the actor who plays Donald Duck needs a break after a long tirade so make sure you don't overdo it.
- To make the angry Donald Duck sound, make the normal Donald Duck sound, but shake your head so that your cheeks flutter and vibrate the sound.
- Some letters are easier to say than others. For example, when Donald Duck says the word "ready", it sounds like "wisto". Changes in the pronunciation of letters will naturally come as a limitation of speaking with your voice.
