What this transcript is
Every word below is the caption track YouTube publishes for this video, pulled from the video itself and reproduced unchanged. It is not Prepublish's writing, not a summary, and not a re-transcription: it is the video's own published captions. English captions, published by the channel, in the video’s original language. Source: the video on YouTube. A channel that would rather this page did not exist can ask for its removal through the contact page, and it is removed.
Ellii Let’s practice our pronunciation! Let’s practice pronouncing words with the voiced /th/ sound. This sound can be represented by the letters "th" or by this symbol. First, let’s practice pronouncing voiced /th/ at the beginning of a word. Listen and repeat after me. Are you ready? The. This. That. There. They. Now we’ll practice pronouncing voiced /th/ in the middle of a word. Here we go! Mother. Father. Weather.
Feather. Clothing. To finish, let’s practice voiced /th/ at the end of a word. Here we go! Bathe. Breathe. Clothe. Teethe. Smooth. Great work! Play this video again if you need more practice. See you next time! [wink] Ellii
