TITLE: MASTERING "th" SOUND

The "th" sound in English is made with your tongue and your teeth. There are two variations of the "th" sound: the voiceless "th" (/θ/) and the voiced "th" (/ð/).

Voiceless "th" (/θ/):

To produce the voiceless "th" sound (as in words like "think" or "math"), follow these steps:

Place the tip of your tongue against your upper front teeth, almost like you're sticking your tongue out just a bit.
Exhale gently, allowing the air to flow between your tongue and your teeth.
This should create a soft, hissing "th" sound, like the sound of air escaping when you blow out a candle.
