Avoid saying words that begin with 'th-'

6 Comments

I avoid words like 'three' as much as possible as I sound like I have a lisp when I pronounce it.

Up until a year or two ago I used to use 'f-' in place of 'th-', but I decided I didn't like sounding so common. Now it just sounds weird.

      At least you have a reason! English is my mother-tongue!

    You should see a speech therapist. My sister went to one for her speech impediment and it really helped.

      How much does something like that cost on average? That could make a difference to the OP depending on their situation financially.
