Pronunciation of the word killing
I have learned that there is a dark L sound in kill, milk, etc and when it is prounced, the tip of the tounge does not touch the roof of the mouth near the front teeth.
However, when I pronunce killing, the tip of my tounge touches the roof of the mouth near the front teeth. Is it a right way of prouncing the word killing for native English speakers?
Thank you so much as usual in advance.
