Pronunciation of the word "healthy"
Hi
In my country, almost everyone pronounces the underlined part of the word "healthy" like [ði], but I have heard many native speakers say [?i]. The same is the case with "wealthy".
Could you please tell me how these words would sound to native ears if pronounced with [ði] in the end and not with [?i]?
Thanks
Tom
