>>61059022
ZATTO
We actually have to "th" sounds.
There's /ð/, as in "though", "them", and "there".
There's also /θ/, as in "thank", "thoughtful", and "thing".
I'm on mobile but I'll Vocaroo in a second since I know foreigners (especially Germanic) will think "them" and "thank" both have the same "th" sound.
>>61061190
Meant *two, not "to". I promise I'm not an illiterate millenial.
>>61061234
>>61061190
Here's how they sound:
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0CWUIDJtvSs
so you're telling me people don't even bother to learn one of the most essential sounds in english, and just go 'd' or something? Why the fuck would 'f' ever substitute?
thigh
Just put your teeth on the tip of your tongue and blow, mate.
But don't worry. Ladies love Quebecois accents.
>>61061782
fuck you nigger
bring back latin
We also have the /θ/ sound and latin americans get mad about it because they can't pronounce it
>>61061783
What's so hard about this?
Hard "th" (/θ/) and then "eye".
Theye
>>61061881
I can pronounce it. I just think it's a weird thing to do.
>>61061881
also: 'suede' vs. 'zuede'
>>61061190
This guy is completely correct.
t. amateur linguistic nerd
>>61061984
In English? I've never heard '"zuede". Or are you talking about Spanish?
>>61061964
it sounds retarded
>>61061190
You can't roll R's like Spain, Mexicans and flips tho
>>61061881
This is why I LOVE Castilian Spanish. That sound is so beautiful to me. /θ/ and /ð/ are the two best sounds on the planet, it is like music. Every language that has them sounds amazing.
>>61062030
I can't pronounce German "Rache" or Icelandic "öllu", just a jumble of noises for me.
>>61062028
I don't know what he's talking about
we call swedes "suecos" with normal "s"
>>61062028
One is a person from a certain country and one is the wooden clog that person
would have worn on his one foot had he emigrated to an other 'certain' country to start a new life.
>>61062075
Can you vocaroo yourself saying
'Tengo cinco cervezas azules'
:)
>>61062075
Yeah. I mixed the terms up in a fit of a stupor.. It should be suecos / zuecos
>>61062072
This evidence make them mad as hell
>>61062123
Here is proof too.
Languages that have /θ/ and /ð/:
-Castilian Spanish
-English
-Icelandic
-Greek
-Welsh
No need to go on, these are the best languages.
>>61059022
You literally just make your teeth touch your tongue and then you make it so that air blows through. There is no biting pressure at all.
>>61061881
I guess it's nice to think latams care so much about pronunciation of peninsular spanish that we actually get mad
literally no one cares. just as you don't care about latam spanish
>>61062109
Nope I can't, but our "z" and "ce/ci" have the same /θ/ sound than "th" in "think"
>>61059022
>Be chinese
>Have two j's, two sh's, and two ch's
inb4 "Those aren't voiced J's" Yeah, I know they're just not aspirated, you know what I mean
>>61062157
>literally no one cares
kek
no spaniard can upload a single video without a bunch of latinos insulting and screaming in the comments about the castilian accent
>>61062231
Yeah, that is why I wanted to hear it.
Castilian Spanish is so beautiful, I cannot even put it into words. It flows like a river, each sound flowing gracefully to the next. Everyone loves to drone on and on about how great Italian sounds, but the true greatest tongue is Castilian Spanish. I am studying Spanish right now, and I strictly pronounce it in the Castilian way.
>>61062153
greek is pretty based, I like how similar it sounds but how different is in reality
>>61062231
I am conflicted about the Castilian θ. On one hand, it maintains distinct from normal s and this is etymologically good because "z"/"ce"/"ci" in Old Spanish were pronouned "ts" and that was distinct from normal "s". On the other hand, Latino /s/ simply sounds closer to the original ts even though that makes the distinction lost.
>>61062153
What about Arabic?
>Greek
It sounds terrible in Modern times. If it was pronounced like Ancient Greek, it would be waaayy better.
>>61062328
Does it honestly matter though how close to the original it sounds? Is a language's aesthetic value purely based on how closely it resembles earlier stages of the language?
The answer to that is no. Truly, Castilian Spanish is THE best language. I plan on teaching English there anyway in a couple of years, so I hope to get very good at it.
>>61062385
I was considering adding Arabic, but it the dental fricatives are only preserved in a few conservative varieties, including the standard though. And even then, it is falling out of use.
>>61062404
>And even then, it is falling out of use.

>>61062266
nono, I meant latams don't care we don't use the theta pronunciation.
>>61062328
Latin americans make the same sound for s, z, c
Some of them make a normal "s" and others make a rare "s" similar to a "ts"
But it's because of their accents, not because of old spanish.
The only variation of spanish that still keeps these old sounds is jewish spanish (judeoespañol or ladino), you can search in yt
P.S: Interesting fact: Spanish from the Phillipines (almost extinct) and Equatorial Guinea (alive) do, partially, that sound https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7VV0ti3o74
>>61062524
How is Castilian Spanish perceived by Latin Americans? Similarly to how Americans perceive British English?
>>61062574
It seems they hate it and think theirs is the correct one
>>61062643
...
How?
>>61062657
Probably because castilian-speaking population doesn't even make half of the latin population of Mexico alone
Latin America is huge and we're an irrelevant country in the butt of Europe
>>61062705
Hey, do not talk like that, Spain is great. I plan on teaching English over there soon.
Be proud of your rich history and culture, mate :)
>>61062050
I can, it's just not a sound in English
>>61062524
Old spanish z (as well as ce and ci) was pronounced as ts. Old spanish s obviously was s. So written <s> was /s/ and written <z> was /ts/
The ts sound did not survive into the modern day, and it changed into different sounds depending on the region. In the prestige dialect in Spain, ts changed into θ. In the dialects that formed the latino dialects, it deaffricated into s (and as a result, unlike in castilian, came to be the same sound as what written <s> stood for).
s is indeed a closer sound to ts than θ, so the Latinos didn't change the sound as much as the Castilians. However, the Castilians at least maintain the separation of the sound between written <s> and written <z> by not having θ become s.
>>61062890
We still can pronounce <ts> perfectly thought, as in pizza. But yes, it dissapeard from our own words.
The thick thighs on them thots through the thampton those.
Can a non native speaker please attempt this
>>61062156
Well not a biting pressure but I do have a habit of pressing down my front teeth on my tongue to make a sharper "th" sound. I don't know where I learned that.
I had a lot of trouble with this sound when I was younger and it was one of the sounds I needed someone to teach me how to form.
>>61063027
When I was young I couldn't pronounce the "r" properly in spanish, instead of that I made something similar to an anglo "r"
maybe that's how that sound was born
>>61062404
Arabic sounds good but Arabic accent usually sounds like trash on most languages. Might be because Arabic itself uses so many more unique sounds.
>>61063104
I wonder why most Arabs in the post-Classical era went full retard and stop pronouncing ج as a g or gy sound.
>>61063201
I like how the Egyptians (that I've spoken with) genuinely seem to confuse g and j when speaking foreign languages. It's exactly like the Japanese confusing r and l because they were brought up thinking that these sounds are synonymous.
Semites will be Semites I guess.

I always tell foreigners to say it either like an s or a z, but with a lisp.
Say "How are zay doing zat?" with a lisp, and you've got the voiced "th" down.
Say "Sink about it" with a lisp and you have the unvoiced "th" down.

Near the end (the three words) your started to sound like you were saying t instead of th. You also said thompton kind of weird, but I am struggling to explain how.
Great otherwise. Also, you have a great narrator voice. I could see you doing documentaries and stuff.
>>61064391
It's normal, I guess.
I (try to) speak english, for two years know. And almost can uderstand a usual conversation.
Well, french is maybe easiest for you, Russian.
Good luck anyway.
Just : for learning, speak with native, and heard them(TV, Internet shows). It's the best way...

I don't speak English aloud all that much, except to myself, so my pronunciation is sometimes a bit shaky at times. Should practice it more but muh insecurities. Also Finnish doesn't have a "th" sound so eh.
>You also said thompton kind of weird, but I am struggling to explain how.
Never heard the word before and couldn't find it on youtube.

Isn't the "th" sound unpronounceable?
