Whistling with your lips

  1. Pretend to give a kiss, pursing your lips.The opening that is created should be small and round.[1] Breath passing through this gap will produce a series of notes.
    • You can also put your lips in the right position by saying the English number "two".
    • You should not rest your lips against your teeth.Instead, you should lean them forward slightly.
    • If your lips are very dry, moisten them with your tongue before you start whistling.This way the sound they produce will be better.
  2. Slightly curl the edges of your tongue upwards.Once you start whistling, you can change the shape of your tongue to modulate the notes.
    • If you're a beginner, place your tongue against your lower dental arch.Eventually, you will learn to change the position of your tongue to produce different sounds.
  3. Blow gently, slightly changing the shape of your lips and the curve of your tongue until you can make a clear sound.This maneuver may require a few minutes of practice, so don't rush.
    • Don't blow too hard at first, but gently.You will be able to whistle more forcefully once you understand the correct shape to give to your lips and tongue.
    • Moisten your lips again if they get dry while you practice.
    • Pay attention to the shape of your mouth when taking a note.What position are the lips and tongue in exactly?Once you hit the right note, keep practicing.Try blowing more firmly to maintain the note.
  4. Try pushing it forward slightly to get higher notes and holding it up to get lower notes.Have fun until you can play the entire scale while whistling.
    • To produce lower notes, you will find that you will also have to lower your jaw.In fact, to emit lower sounds, it is necessary to create more space inside the mouth.You might also point your chin down when you want to take these notes.
    • The lips narrow slightly as you play higher notes.Try lifting your head to whistle a high note.
    • If you hiss instead of whistling, it's likely that your tongue is too close to the roof of your mouth.

Whistling with the Tongue

  1. The upper lip should fit over the upper teeth, which should protrude slightly.The lower one must rest against the lower teeth, which will remain completely covered.The mouth, therefore, should take the shape of a toothless smile.From this position you will be able to emit a very loud whistle, capable of attracting enough attention to stop a taxi when your hands are full.
    • Use your fingers to position your lips correctly.[2]
  2. Position it so that it is lying flat, flat, and slightly spaced behind your bottom teeth.You should still leave a little space between your tongue and your bottom teeth, without letting them touch.
  3. Direct the air downwards, towards the lower dental arch.You should be able to feel the force of the air pushing down on your tongue.The breath escapes past the sharp angle created by the top of the tongue and the upper teeth, going down through the lower teeth and the lower lip.This way you can produce a very loud sound.
    • This type of whistle requires practice and training.Your jaw, tongue, and mouth will all be tense when you whistle like this.
    • Try to widen and flatten the tip of your tongue until you make a loud, clear sound.
    • Remember that the tongue must remain suspended in the mouth, more or less at the height of the lower dental arch.
  4. [3] By changing the position of your tongue, cheek muscles and jaw you can produce a wide range of notes.

  1. When whistling with your fingers, use them to hold your lips in place and make the sounds as clear as possible.Everyone chooses which fingers to use to be able to whistle better.Their location depends on the size and shape of both the fingers and the mouth.Consider the following possibilities:
    • Use your right and left index fingers together.
    • Use your right and left middle fingers together.
    • Use your right and left little fingers together.
    • Use your thumb and middle (or index) finger on the same hand.
  2. Regardless of which combination of fingers you choose, place them together to form an inverted "V."The top of the "V" corresponds to the point where the fingers join the mouth.
    • Make sure your hands are clean before putting your fingers in your mouth.
  3. The two fingers should touch just under the tongue, behind the back teeth.
  4. A small opening should form precisely between the fingers.
    • Close your mouth around your fingers to ensure that air only passes through the gap between them, so that the whistle sounds more consistent.
  5. This technique should allow you to produce a loud, high-pitched sound, perfect for calling your dog or getting the attention of friends.Continue practicing until your fingers, tongue and lips are in the correct position to make a firm sound.
    • Don't blow too hard at first.Gradually increase the force with which you push the air out until you understand how to whistle correctly.
    • Try various finger combinations.You may not be able to whistle with some fingers, but others may be just the right size to produce the sounds you want.

Advice

  • Don't blow hard, especially when practicing – this will give you more air to practice with.It's best to learn how to modulate sounds and assume the correct position before controlling the volume.
  • Most people find it easier to whistle with wet lips.Try wetting them with your tongue or, perhaps, taking a sip of water.
  • Each whistle has a "sweet spot" where the shape of your mouth is right for making a long, clear whistle.Practice whistling by following the methods in the article until you have found your "sweet spot".
  • When you exhale, try to lift your diaphragm to let the air out and move it slightly upwards.
  • By hinting at a smile with your lips you will increase the intonation.It's best to know your range this way.
