The TR Sound in English - What Is It?

I want to talk a little bit about some examples of students who have shown this curiosity and who have tried to notice new things in their English learning journey.

But many English learners don't pronounce it as tada, right? And this is incorrect. He was really fascinated by this reality that he hadn't noticed before.
