The English words you wrote sport two different 'th' sounds, and Russian doesn't have either sound.
Have you seen this? The spoken language is German, of course, but you'll need to come up with something similar for Russian. Try substituting с, з or ф. Last edited by Rusty; June 30, 2011 at 09:33 PM. |

Yeah, I considered using those letters, but I wasn't sure. Thanks!

Normally in Russia we pronounce "th" like з . But it's not totally correct. If you speak about /ð/ (for example they) sound it is right to put the letter з, but if you speak about /θ/ (for example thought), it has no equivalent. So we normally use з letter for both of this sounds.
