Identification
of Errors
Error #1. Error in the pronunciation of the sound "th"
Why this error occurs?
In the English language the combination of
the letters "th" has two sounds (/รฐ/ and /ฮธ/). These sounds are
produced by expelling air, having the tongue between the upper and lower teeth.
But, since these sounds don't exist in Spanish, we tend to pronounce them as a
"d" or "z". The error occurs when we cannot distinguish
which of the two sounds is correct in each word because we have /รฐ/ and /ฮธ/.
Exercise
