I haven't even thought that the "th" sound is so difficult for me to pronounce since my new teacher Jenny told me.
did you find this problem? _________________ BMW is called "宝马� in China,which means "precious horse", now it is produced by the hands of Chinese. |

To pronounce one single word with the "th" sound is not difficult, but to say a sentence comprising many words with that sound would be difficult for me since I would have to use my tongue frequently. That might make me stammer.  |

so you know the right pronounciation, but i don't konw that till Jenny told me.
when you speak happily ,you woufld forget the "th" sound. so we need more practice. _________________ BMW is called "宝马� in China,which means "precious horse", now it is produced by the hands of Chinese. |

It is popularly supposed that Chinese people have trouble with "R" and "L" sounds, whereas the "th" sound is difficult for Germans and French. The English have trouble with "ch" as is occurs in German.
I guess we all have trouble with some aspects of foreign languages. Most of the time people are very tolerant and helpful to foreigners who are trying to speak their language. |

you are right. talking with foreigners is very helpful to your pronounciation.
i think i don't have the problem with"R" and"L", but "mill" is hard for me to speak.
in China, people in Huan province have some trouble with "L" and " N", they coufuse them ,e.g. they cann't say "man" (in Chinese , it is nanren) in proper way, insteadly, they say "wolf"(in Chinese, it is lanren). _________________ BMW is called "宝马� in China,which means "precious horse", now it is produced by the hands of Chinese. |
