H and TH - practise
'I used to hear the thump and thud of three thousand thick shod hooved horses.'
To make the TH sound, put your tongue out under your top teeth, touching your top teeth with the middle of the top of your tongue, and blow gently. This is the sound at the end of the word teeth.
A different, stronger sound can be made by voicing or humming. This is the sound at the start of the word Them.
