Introducing Digraph ‘th’

It’s time for digraph th sound words.

We usually begin with digraph ‘sh’  and then move on to digraph ‘ch.’

After that comes digraph ‘th’ which we will be discussing in detail today.

For the th sound words, put the tongue between the teeth and simultaneously blow the air out. Try doing this without and then with voice.

The digraph ‘th’ makes two sounds, voiced and unvoiced. ‘Th’ is pronounced with voice is certain words like the, this,that, these, their, they, those, then them, feather, brother etc.

For today, we will be covering the more common unvoiced ‘th’ sound which can be found in words like bath, moth, sloth, froth, thick, thin, theme, cloth, pith etc.
