I've been speaking and practising english for more than 6 years but never did figure out the th sound. This video helped me pronounce the th sound in the correct way for the first time in my life. Thank you so much
Tom, you are a great teacher. All your teaching and practices are practical, professional, and simple enough to be learned by rookies like me.
Rachels videos are the best!!!
THHHHHHHHHank you :)
You're welcome Babišovy!
I applied as an assisstant language teacher in japan, and they told me that I had a problem with articulating /t/ and /th/ sounds. So they told me to practice first, but I know that the reason behind this issue is because of my braces. I never really thought that this was a problem for me until they brought this up.
Thanks for sharing Mykee!
Thanks so much Rachel teacher

I have been struggling with the th sound since I lost my front teeth, which prevented me from using the sound. I am now twelve, hoping this video can help me speak it correctly more often. Wish me luck!
🙏🙌🏻👏🏻 Good job, Tom!❤😘
AMAZING!!! I loved it
Thanks a lot!
Felicidades por el vídeo muy bien
Wow , you helped me alot...😅😁
THANK YOU
You're welcome Nessa!
Tom says: "We want the th sound - ð". And then he says "In the back" or "in the" with very short, but still easy to hear "d' sound. Ring the curtain down. This brings so much confusion. Actually you CAN pronounce "th" like very short /d/ by just tapping your tongue on the upper teeth when you speak fast. Even British Native speakers sometimes have problems with pronouncing ð all the time and they do this trick.
Nice video . Thumbs up
thanks Tom Kelly ...:)
Wow very nice. Thangs Tom
thanks*

Lol, two years and I have problems with the voiced TH sound, especially in words like the this that, I found the solution is to make a vibration from my throat, I was pushing my tongue out and making a little vibration, so thank you a lot this really helped me a lot 😍😍
You're very welcome!
Very useful. Thanks a lot!
My pleasure Hugh!

Thanky you Tom, great . now I know how to pronouce it but I need to do many exercises

Hi Everybody!
'since these days, those restless nights, there's something sick that sold these sings.'
is a good one to practice, i think, as a none-native speaker - and it rhymes.
you can sing it to anything in the radio, i tried it, does help a lot

How to pronounce THREE? It’s hard for me to pronounce it when TH&R get together.
This is a tough combination of sounds! It may help you to think about there being a silent schwa sound before the R. As the tongue quickly pulls back from the TH sound into the R, there may be a super fast schwa sound that happens because of the movement and time it takes to get the tongue into position. Try thinking of it in that way (and practice it in slow motion to get the movement from the TH to the R sound down) and you may find that it becomes a little easier!
U r so good
Thanks Anaya!
Ur welcome 💃
When do I pronounce it "Th" or "D"? Is there any rule for that? i.e ; TH of "thank you" is that pronounce "th"? never "Dunkyu"??
If you are pronounce "D" instead "th" as "the", position of tongue is "D" or between teeth?
I'm having difficulties pronouncing the "th" sound after the letter "s"
Mike zan wow 😳 never thought about that word
me too.
ME too
Same here
Same
How to pronounce TH after the letter 'S'? Like in "I wish I was there". And I mean without making a huge stop between the was and the there
This takes some tongue flexibility! You need to slide the tip of your tongue from the Z position to the TH consoant position, with the tip of your tongue between your teeth. Practice in slow motion going from a Z to a voiced TH consonant without a stop in sound, then start speeding it up. Over time, it will get easier.
@@rachelsenglish Thanks for the reply! I'll practice
I have a student who struggles with this sound which I am used to, but he substitutes and L sound instead of t or d... I CANNOT find a way to get him to change it. Sometimes he gets the sound but then squeezes the l sound right after (thlat instead of that)... Any tips?
Hi! You may have already tried this, but it can be useful to really slow down and have them say the word in slow motion - incredibly slowly. It sounds like he may need to adjust his tongue position in general and try thinking of the tongue as being lower (especially the middle and back part of the tongue) than he may be useful. Slowing way down is always the first thing I try when a student of mine is encountering an issue like this - good luck! :)
Hi! Can you make a video about the word "theatre"? It's very hard for me to pronounce it and I would be grateful if you could help me. :)
The difference between d and th is blocking the airflow or not.
I have a problem to pronounce the TH sound because I have buck teeth.
It is too difficult for me.
pas mal
👍
It is super hard. I start learning that since I was a kid but now I still cannot pronounce that
I have difficulties pronouncing th after a consonant in a sentence. For example: Just the two of us (like in Will Smith song). I'm guessing that the t of just will be assimilated by the th is that correct? In that case it would be "Jus the two of us" or is it more like you fuse both words and pronounce them together? LIke "Justhe two of us" which one is correct? Or are both false?
Hi! I think your description is accurate! You can drop the T of 'just' and link (or 'fuse') the S consonant into the voiced TH consonant of 'the'.
@@rachelsenglish I understand, thank you very much for your time :)
I hear sometimes Americans say the th as dh because they’re talking fast. They do the right th position but theyre still saying dh sometimes
Hi, I have to practice slow motion the TH&R clusters sound that's a hard combination I'm doing my tongue quickly pulling the back I watch your TH sound full video you've made that videos are almost 1 hour
You can do it!
@@rachelsenglish I'm crazy about American English thanks.

Hi! When i try to pronounce "Cheap" it sounds like "CHIP". Would you please make a video that shows the difference between chip and cheap? Thank you.
Life of exponent yes sounds very different cheap = cheeeeeep
Rachel seems to like you
I find it quite difficult to do it! There isn't this sound in Brazil. Every time a speak using TH, I guess I make mistake. But thanks for this lesson. I need it! I'll train.
é fácil, é só colocar a língua entre os dentes e soltar ar com força.
e tu escreveu "I'll train" = eu vou trem. O correto é "I'll practice it". To train é mais pra preparar-se fisicamente como numa academia.
kkkkkk foi mal. Obrigado pela dica
Man, I can pronounce the final "-th" with a certain comfort. But when the final "-th" comes after the "-ks".... OK, I'm gonna be straight! I do hate when I have to pronounce the numeral sixth! It's like a nightmare for me!!! That's it!!!!
Would you have any specific exercise for me?
Thanks in advance.
How do you pronounce things like BAD THING? I can´t join the sound for the life of me
