How to Pronounce Hearth (Real Life Examples!)

PS A heart is not a hearth. They are not the same word. Why use the first example??

Who made this video?? Why in the world did you start it off with President Obama saying “heart” surgery? The subject of this video is how to pronounce the word “hearth”, not “heart.” Please re-do this and delete the first example. America doesn’t need more people justifying their mistakes because “the President said it.”

00:09 second mark: Yikes. Why would this video lead with Obama pronouncing heart, instead of hearth? ESL may be led to the conclusion that there are two pronunciations for "hearth"! They may even wonder what "hearth" surgery is.

Thank you kindly American Pronunciation Guide. Turns out my 7th grade literature teacher was correct. But she was still wrong for giving me lunch detention haha

1. Every example is male. Every.single.one. 2. You are giving credibility to the guy who visits Culloden and pronounces it Cullōden, like he didn’t have time to listen to the tour guide?! That guy? Pfft.

This sexist bias in this video is obvious. Women can pronounce words, too.
