Every time I watch a video about English pronunciation I find out I have been wrong this whole time. Thanks to the web I am learning the language properly.
I am Brazilian, and I am very grateful for your time to teach English. Since I do not speak or write English correctly, I'm using google translate to thank you.
the "th" tongue trick is great! Ive been trying everything to show my spanish speaking students to get the "tha" sound out of them. thank you, Ms. Ronnie.
Spanish was my first language and learning English was super easy cause people say it's difficult cause of all the same sounding words like, there, their, and they're but it was easy for me. Only problem is I couldn't pronounce TH. My teachers thought I said dare instead if there. Or dink instead of think. And as a young child in elementary school that made me self conscious and I stopped talking for a year. My mom told me to look it up on TH-cam and I found this video 6 years ago. I just want to thank you cause now I can pronounce it flawlessly and I owe it all to you. I'm a junior now and when I found this I was in 6th grade and my cousin said you had to read out loud a lot and since I loved reading I also knew that books have A LOT of TH words so over the summer I kept practicing and re watching this video and by late August I had mastered it. Thank you again so much. Now I actually love to read out loud and I actually volunteer to read first
My name is sebastian Marten. First of all thx for engvid.com, because of this website I can improve my english, I feel have a big improvement in speking english.
Ronnie your lesson is very intersting and wonderful! but it makes me confused because it is difficult to separate which lesson is first and which next. but your approch is very nice. thank you a lot for your unlimited effort to help us. thank you again!!!!!!!!!!
thanks for your TH effective Teaching way it really saved me i tired many many videos on youtube, didn't work with me, but your snick way is a quick fix, ended all my struggle with nightmare TH. by the way, i subscribed to your channel.
S has a voiced partner; z. Th also has a voiced partner, also written as th, as in words like 'this', 'that' and 'weather'. It didn't even occur to me that the voiced and unvoiced th were two different sounds until I began studying other languages.
Well I repeat over, and over again words with the "TH". But first you need to make it sound right. This video is really great to learn how to do it. What I did, is repeat Thin ; Think ; Thing ; Thick right after her in the video. Once I got the right sound, I worked by myself. For example, every time I'm watching a movie or Tv show (in English) I repeat every Th words (which happen a lot xD).
worse vs worth: For what it's worth I love you And what is worse I really do Oh what is worse I'm gonna run run run 'Till the sweetness gets to you And what is worse I love you!
Thank you. Is there any trick for people with a really small/short tongue? Also, is it good when the S sounds schrill and crisp on words or is that bad because it gives to much power to the S? -> Sounds like a whistling or a can of hot water...
Thanks for replying. So I am Russian... P.S. I have some questions on the term of Canadian language, but so I have asked them in comments to other your video-lessons I think it is no use to repost (copy-paste) them much more. P.P.S. Your lessons are very addictive. You are the very person on your own place, in one word, you have capabilities for this. So I am very glad that I haply (per chance) have encountered your lessons on the "big, grand, wide" web )))
It has nothing to do with your teeth.When you want to say "s", put your tongue behind/slightly pressing on your bottom teeth. "SH" you should bite your back teeth and put your tongue tip at the top of your mouth!
Can you make a lesson about the pronunciation of voiced and unvoiced th? Anyway I've been starting to follow you some days ago and I'm really enjoying your lessons.
Very enjoyable lesson you do. So I occurred to ask you if you native American, British or Canadian yourself? It is just per purpose of curiosity, it is to say of education.
I'm north Texan and I pronounce the "th" vocalized or unvocalized as follows- In "then" the "th" is vocalized In "thin" the "th" is unvocalized In "thing" the "th" is unvocalized In "the" the "th" is vocalized I the rule here is the "th" if followed by an "e" it's vocalized, if it's followed by an "i" it's not "The-"vocalized "Thi-"unvocalized
I had an accident 5 years ago where I knocked two of my top front teeth. Since then, my speech has never been the same. The orthodontists said the shape of the teeth are fine and that I should speak to a speech therapist. I have noticed a slight gap in the upper section in between the two teeth. Could this have given me a lisp? Or may it have been that while I was wearing a denture for the better half of a year, my body adapted to a different shape and size? Please help
The reason why you make a "F" sound is because you are not sticking your tongue out.....When you say the TH sound, you MUST stick out your tongue! When you say F, your top teeth cover your bottom lip. TH is all in the tongue!
I notice sometimes some british speakers make a ''F'' or ''D'' (and sometimes even a ''V'') sound instead of saying the ''right Th'' sound. Is that bad habit, accent or none of these? For example, I often see ''Anything'' pronounced as ''Anyfing'' and ''Brother'' as ''Brover''.

Thank you very much!
Thank you Ronnie.
You are a great teacher. You are lovely and fun.
Your lessons are always interesting and fun.
Thanks a million times.
It's very difficult for brazilians speakers, but you are a very good teacher, Ronnie!

i don't know why i have so much fun watching these, i've been speaking english for sixteen years...
I still don't know how I did learn the TH sound, because it sounds complicated. That was so intuitive, I do exactly the way that she taught. Thanks!!!
Ronnie you're the best teacher ever!
Another teacher on Engvid has done a video on that already! Go to the website and search for "s".
I remember watching your videos when I was younger! The pronunciation!
I really like how you teach
I can't stop smiling while I'm watching your videos. You are awesome! :)
I do not want to be much obsessive... It is you that transmit some energy or emotions that beset other people too )))
Ronnie your lesson is very intersting and wonderful! but it makes me confused because it is difficult to separate which lesson is first and which next. but your approch is very nice. thank you a lot for your unlimited effort to help us. thank you again!!!!!!!!!!

You're voice is relaxing. Suitable for learning.
@SickOfJoo The back of your tongue is arched in your slightly opened mouth, and the tip is behind your teeth.You blow air over your tongue.
you are fantastic!!!!! thank you i am learning easily from your lessons.
I love how you teach, I've been following you for years ❤
Ronnie, you're the best! Thanks for your lessons!!!!
Hi Ronnie! It is an easy way to understand the difference between these sounds. Thanks teacher. Selma from Brazil.

S has a voiced partner; z. Th also has a voiced partner, also written as th, as in words like 'this', 'that' and 'weather'. It didn't even occur to me that the voiced and unvoiced th were two different sounds until I began studying other languages.
@Kreloar she said mouths, when people say mouths the "th" is more like the "th" sound when you say the. not like the "th" in thin or thicks
Well I repeat over, and over again words with the "TH". But first you need to make it sound right. This video is really great to learn how to do it. What I did, is repeat Thin ; Think ; Thing ; Thick right after her in the video. Once I got the right sound, I worked by myself.

I am teaching and not native. Please,make more videos for us. Useful!

worse vs worth:
For what it's worth I love you
And what is worse I really do
Oh what is worse I'm gonna run run run
'Till the sweetness gets to you
And what is worse I love you!
Thank you.
Is there any trick for people with a really small/short tongue?
Also, is it good when the S sounds schrill and crisp on words or is that bad because it gives to much power to the S?
-> Sounds like a whistling or a can of hot water...
Th - самый сложный звук😑
Спасибо за урок 👏👏👏🥰

Hey!I do appreciate your teaching ability.you teach magnificently...
Thanks for replying.
So I am Russian...
P.S. I have some questions on the term of Canadian language, but so I have asked them in comments to other your video-lessons I think it is no use to repost (copy-paste) them much more.
P.P.S. Your lessons are very addictive. You are the very person on your own place, in one word, you have capabilities for this. So I am very glad that I haply (per chance) have encountered your lessons on the "big, grand, wide" web )))
In a sentence, I always pronounce the TH sound like the sound of F, automatically. How can I practice this?
thank you Roonie. I am sending you greetings from Nigeria.
very helpful! I've always had a problem with those. thanks ! :)
It has nothing to do with your teeth.When you want to say "s", put your tongue behind/slightly pressing on your bottom teeth.
"SH" you should bite your back teeth and put your tongue tip at the top of your mouth!
Bottom?
Really you are my favorite teacher
Can you make a lesson about the pronunciation of voiced and unvoiced th? Anyway I've been starting to follow you some days ago and I'm really enjoying your lessons.
What it is difficult for me is to go from TH to S in the plural of words ending in TH. For example Truths or paths.
Very enjoyable lesson you do. So I occurred to ask you if you native American, British or Canadian yourself? It is just per purpose of curiosity, it is to say of education.
Dear Ronnie! Tell us please what the difference in pronunciation "three" and "free". Thank you! You are so cool teacher!
It was very easy to understand. Thanks you.
I like the way that you explain the class funny and easy
OMG! I love you!! You're better than my english teacher. :DD

Thank u very much Ronnie, really your way for explaining is very nice
thank you ronnie i love your lessons
Thank you. Very useful for me. From Thailand
thanks ronnie
it is helpful to learn.
thank you so much for sharing this video after 5 hard years I can say my english accent is so posh !!!!
Thin_ Thing_ Think_ 👈🏻These words sound so similar
I'm north Texan and I pronounce the "th" vocalized or unvocalized as follows-
In "then" the "th" is vocalized
In "thin" the "th" is unvocalized
In "thing" the "th" is unvocalized
In "the" the "th" is vocalized
I the rule here is the "th" if followed by an "e" it's vocalized, if it's followed by an "i" it's not
"The-"vocalized
"Thi-"unvocalized
Thanks for your explanation (:
Rosario Rosario no problem, if you have any other questions just ask
Thanks you're a native English speaker?
+Rosario Rosario yeah

YES - there is a really big difference. You need to learn the difference. Your teachers probably don't correct you because they don't know how to!!!
i like your lessons.
Brilliant! Really great work. Thank you!
Are you alive?
