"TH" is for thoughtful thinkers
Manage episode 293464924 series 2931064
In this podcast we'll practice with the "th" sounds in English. This is the sound you hear in the word "the" and the word "think". The "th" in "the" is voiced which means your vocal cords vibrate when you make the sound. In "think" the "th" sound is unvoiced--the vocal cords do not vibrate.
Part One of this lesson is a listening exercise. I wrote a short paragraph which includes lots of "th" sounds. The paragraph will repeat three times. Just listen.
On Thursday it was cloudy. Then it started to rain. This made me feel sad because it was my thirtieth birthday. I thought about a lot of things like the theory of relativity. That made me feel better and I was grateful to Albert Einstein for thinking it up.
Part Two: Practice with voiced "th"
1) Then it started to rain.
2) Are they your friends?
3) I like these flowers more than those.
4) He gave them something to eat.
5) The fire started in the kitchen.
6) This is my house and that one is theirs.
Part Three: Practice with unvoiced "th"
1) How old is she? She's thirty.
2) Is today Tuesday? No, it's Thursday.
3) Ouch! I hit my thumb with a hammer.
4) You think too much.
5) Are you hungry? No, I'm thirsty.
6) You should eat more. You're too thin.
7) She could hear thunder in the distance.
8) Well, you could say 'thank you'.
9) Next year I'll be thirteen.
10) The thermostat is broken, sorry.
Part Four: Listening exercise again with spaces. Listen and repeat.
