@learnamericanenglish very hard to make TH sound :( When I say "brush your teeth" to my wife and kids, they are laughing and sayin okay we are going to brush our TITS !!! :))

[learnamericanenglish]

@darkcorsom -- That's funny. Remember, your tongue must touch your teeth or push through between your teeth when you make the "th" sound. Do a search on the "th" sound in English here on YouTube and you should be able to find a video that will help you.

Thank you for the lesson, I've been wrong every time ... until now. Actually, that was the way I was producing the /theta/ sound.

But now, I'm a little bit upset ... What is the difference between the /delta/ sound (e.g. that, those, though) and the /theta/ sound (as in thin, thousand, thought) ?

Thanks!

great videos btw - keep it up :)
