I had never realized that I always used the D sound instead of TH sound for these words. Now I'm training to bite (lightly) the tongue, exaggeratedly, to pronounce the TH sound, until it becames more natural for me. Very good ... learning a new thing every day!

Thanks for your video.I really appreciate it!

In my American accent I normally do an in between pronunciation of the TH and D when I talk normally. It sounds like a combination of a TH and D with my tongue pressing against the edge of my front teeth not exactly against my palate where you would do the trilled R or an airy TH sound. It sounds like a soft D with a huh after the D if you know what I'm talking about. But it isn't a hard D.

i didn't thought i would like your way of teaching people

[evanhsieh]

That's my favorite movie too! Though I sadly can't celebrate as English is my dominant and mother tongue.

[israelmiguel]

[Nicole]

every time I listen "TH" sound quickly, sounds like a D to me!

This video is good. I’m honestly surprised that nobody gave you a hard time about “cultural issues.”
