Speech & Pronunciation
when pronouncing th sound...
I'm confused and miss th sound when hearing from native speakers because sometimes it differs from my th sound.
It's natural not to be perfect when pronouncing it as a non-native foreinger, but I think it's better to find a right way to do it since it's closely
related to hearing of th sound.
I usually put what I feel is the tip of my tongue(end point) to the
void area of upper teeth and bottom teeth...
but I'm wondering if it's correct to put it to the top end part of bottom teeth
and rest of the flesh of my tongue above the tip end part of it between upper and bottom front teeth
It may sound a bit analytical to the point of being funny stupid
but I think it can make a difference in soudn when saying it fast with
other vowels and consonants.

sung min Lee but I'm wondering if it's correct to put it to the top end part of bottom teeth My tongue tip presses lightly against the back side of the tips of my upper front teeth; that is, as a native speaker speaking fluidly, my tongue tip does not make it all the way between the upper and lower front teeth.
