🤔THOUGH

Are you saying this word wrong?
A lot of English learners make this mistake, but it’s easy to fix.

We say: THĹŤ.
The GH is silent.
It’s not: THOG or THOFF.
It’s THō.
There is just one syllable: THĹŤ.
Start with the voiced TH sound, then round your lips for OH:  THō.

Though.
It was difficult, though.
I like it, though.
Even though it was raining, we went out.

Let’s practice. I’ll say blue. You say green.
Though.
It was difficult, though.
I like it, though.
Even though it was raining, we went out.

The GH is silent: THĹŤ.

Write your example with though in the comments.
Thanks for watching, and until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
