❇️THREE / TREE

🔆The TH sound and the TR sound are definitely challenging for English learners – but it’s important to differentiate them!

 🔸Three has a “soft TH” like in the words think and thirsty, and the “soft TH” is followed by an R sound – same as in throw, thread, and thrift.

 🔸In the word tree, the T has more of a CH sound, so it should be almost like TCHREE. This TR combination is the same as in true, transfer, and trip.
