Hi guys! I had made a couple of mistakes in this video, so I took it down, made the changes, and then uploaded it again. That's why you might get two notifications for the same video. I apologise for any confusion!
Hi you have facedook
Oops.....it's well to the beginners, but I don't know
Undoubtedly, your videos are very useful and helpful to have a good knowledge of English as a non-native.
Very useful, thank you Max!
Great explanation, Max!
Perfect explanation. Thanks a lot.
Wonderful explanation!
Thank you so much.
I'm very happy learning all this...
It makes me feel relief.
You are an excelent teacher!
Thirty three thanks Max. A great video that will help my French and Spanish speakers with the ‘th’ sound. I am an English guy working as an English language Tutor online. Your understanding of how to teach English language skills is second to none. Take care.
Thanks very much, Paul! It means a lot. :)
Its good to learn from you Miss Max..
Thanks Max 🙏
Thank you ! Very useful.
My pleasure!
thnx Ma:am, so fruitful
Good class ! Thanks teacher
My pleasure!
You are an adorable teacher.❤️❤️❤️
Thanks. It´s really hepfull. I really like the pharagraphs with the target sounds within them. Could you do more of them? I mean, specially the vowels sounds.
I'll try to remember that for future videos! Thanks!
Hello Max, I am sharing this video with a Russian student because it's still the best TH lesson by far. Also, I have a Brazilian student who is a Communications Professor, he absolutely adores your videos. Best Regards from Indonesia.
Thank you very much, Paul! You're very kind :).
Thank you , thank you 😊
Good evening and thank a lot of your efforts to make this video Max!
Thank you for your continued support, Long!
I'm always support you Max! You have made a lot of useful videos for learners. Thank you so much.
Thank you
Thank you Madam
Hey, my teacher Max, your pronunciation is amazing.You correct my prounuciation that I pronounced wrong before.I'm a non-native speaker. As long as I'm your student, I'll be able to achieve my goal.English is my passion, my goal is to be able to communicate with confidence as a speaker and a patient listener.I don't mind I can't speak like a native English speaker or I have no foreign accent.I was not born into the language, but I'm the NEW SPEAKER of the world.Thanks so much.Have a wonderful beautiful day.I'll see you soon next time.Take care , cheers, my techer Max.
Thanks so much!
And I like your attitude. Lots of English learners think that they should lose their accents and try to speak like native speakers, but it's really not necessary. Learning a foreign language is about being able to understand others and to communicate with confidence. 👍👍
thank you max
Well done 👍
Thanks
mam...your video is very very informative.......
Thanks :).

The best YT teacher!!!
You're very kind :)

I'm very glad it was helpful!
Eres hermosa, y explicas muy bien.
1:52 I used to have difficulties to pronounce it for many years, and that my native language is Spanish
Hi Max how are you doing my dear teacher
I love your channel thanks for your effort
Have a nice Sunday night
Thanks again for commenting, Aparecido! I hope you had a nice weekend!
Nice
I was taught by my Native English professor, to say the sounds in this phrase. "Think and then speak" but the two sounds might just be following each other too swiftly. Like treading upon the heels of one another.
Max,i always watch your video.i am working on my pronunciation now.i am in sydney. If you provide any course i would like to join
Thanks for watching! No, I'm not giving classes at the moment. All the best in Sydney!!
Hi Max. I m from Brazil. I have dificult with this sound TH. Thank you and by.
It's tricky. I hope the video helped a little!
"Barang-barang berat itu ternyata berkarat"😂 (my not so funny Indonesian joke:).. Hi Max, I just found your channel a while ago, and together with other English pronounciation channels in RUclips I hope I would be able to speak like you do! Terima kasih banyak🙏🙏❤
Sama sama! :D
Hi Max, this is a great lesson, by the way could you please lemme know, is it really necessary to use voiceless TH or is it optional among native speakers.. Can't we pronounce without that sss sound in american English .. Thanks
Well... People will probably still understand you if you don't use it, but it will make your English clearer if you can use both. All the best with it!
I'm an Urdu speaker . I can pronoun easily . You are soo beautiful.
Hi Max! I'm not sure if The is pronounce like THuh- uh ....or TH- uh. Let me know what is the correct pronounciation for The.
A QUESTION: If our vocal cords DO NOT vibrate when we whisper, so how on Earth can we still pronounce voiced sounds? I can totally produce the Z sound, for instance, when I'm whispering, so how is it possible to produce voiced sounds without vocal folds vibration?
I can not see the difference but I wil try to practice all anyway. Thank you for your time in teaching us you are my favorite teacher.
Oh, thank you so much!
Hello, Max. Does the word “with” have the two types? I mean, the voiced and unvoiced TH? Thank you.
Good observation! Yes, it does:
www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/with?q=with
Thank you very much.
I just have one question. How do I recognize that a word must be pronounced either way? Or do I have to guess it very intuitively?
Haha, I was sure someone would ask that! I almost included something about it in this video, but I didn't want it to be too long. There are some general rules, but I think it's normally best just to learn the pronunciation of each individual word.
Here in Latin America the /θ/ sound has the stigma of being associated with Spain, since in most European dialects of Spanish there is that sound, but in Latin America it is replaced by the /s/ sound
Although I was taught to make that sound when I was little
Thank you for your great efforts.
Unfortunately I couldn’t find any mistake in your previous video but I can figure out one mistake in this video, you put pillows on armchair but it should be on bed don’t them?
Haha, well, those are actually cushions, which we often put on armchairs. ;)
English with Max what a bout two different earrings? It’s a very clear mistake.
Hello from Kurdistan Iraq ,
I have a question which is , how should we notice or pronounce it the correct sound in a word whether it’s ð or θ? Is there any rules to be inform
Like (c) sound sometimes it’s (k) and sometimes is (d).
Good question. There aren't really any rules, but there are some common patterns. They're explained here (scroll down to the last yellow box):

I have been facing problem to pronounce Th sound but I don't know two types there mam could you please explain me to how to identify unvoiced and voiced in th sound mam 🥰Thank you so much for this splendid video 🥰🥰Yup you're right madam I want to practice more about this sound 😊😊
Unfortunately there aren't really any rules to know when we use the voiced TH and the unvoiced TH. If you're unsure, it's best to look up the word in a dictionary that has phonetic transcriptions as well as audio files, such as this one:
dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/that
I hope that helps!
@@EnglishwithMax 🥰🥰🥰Thank you so much, mam
Thanks for video. In Finland, our Finnish language has rolled R sound too 🙂
I am Turk and this sound is pretty hard for who speaks Turkish 🙂
şuan çıkarabiliyor musun?
Th é o som do ( f ) brasileiro

Hi teacher can you give me online class...?
I have trouble rolling my R's too......lol
how to pronounce the word vowel wherher ` vow - el ´ or ` vo - wel´
You are very beautiful.........Great tutorial too......
About the Spanish (and Italian,...) r-sound: I'm German (and not from the Bavarian part of Germany), so I wasn't able to pronounce it. Then I wanted to learn Spanish, and my Spanish teacher said 'No no no, you cannot pronounce the r the German way, you MUST learn to roll it. He advised me to say dt dt dt dt - hardly without a vowel sound between them - because the movement of the tongue behind the front teeth is quite similar to the movement when you are rolling the r. So wherever I was (waiting for the bus, not being able to fall asleep, whatever) I was saying dt dt dt... And finally, finally, after about a year!, I started producing the r I was aiming for! Yeah! And it became better and better. And then - when I no longer needed it - someone told me such a good way to practise it: take this very silly German sentence "Brot und Brötchen, Brühe und Braten, bringt die Braut dem Bräutigam." But instead of every r after the b say a d. So you say: 'Bdot und Bdötchen, Bdühe und Bdaten, bdingt die Bdaut dem Bdäutigam.' 😂 It sounds absolutely hilarious, it is so much fun, and most of all - it is so effective!!! Suddenly your tongue begins fluttering about and making the Spanish r instead of the 'wrong d'! I should've known that before!
I know you are quite an expert in German. Can you say this 'Bdot und Bdötchen'-sentence? 😁😎
I tried it, and you're right, it's similar to saying a Spanish/Bavarian R, and it's certainly good for the tongue!
I find the German R much easier! (At least the standard German R ;).)
Btw, your English is excellent!!
English with Max Thank you! It is so lovely that you tried! (In fact I teach English - to beginners - so my English should be OK. I'm quite good at reading, writing is ok, speaking is ok but more difficult, but the most difficult thing for me is listening (understanding). As soon as a person has an accent or as soon as people are talking together, it is really hard for me to understand. And the most difficult thing is understanding films, TV series and comedy. Oh dear! Very frustrating. 😕 So I keep watching English speaking videos to get as much input as possible! 😊)
I understand :). Even though I lived in Germany for a year and I worked on my German a lot, there are still some accents that I struggle with (I think mainly Bavarian ;)). And yes, comedy can be very hard! I don't know if you've seen my videos about movies and TV shows, but I mention that. It's great that you keep watching things, though!
Teacher Max, can we say " The pimple/lump is increasing in number"?.Thank you
No, but you can say: The pimple/lump is increasing in size. ;)
Teacher Max, if I say " The number of the lump is increasing", is it correct? I want to say " One lump and then become multiple lumps.
You can say: The number of lumps is increasing.
Hello i can ask u dear
Hai ramai dari Indonesia.... R r r
I need subtitles Vietnamese 😭
Perfect face
That is snakspeaking if the tongue goes out much
Scottish 'r' is ok 😉
Haha, yes, it's very similar to the Spanish R I believe.
Is very confusion in my brain
Don't worry, it's normal. Just keep practising. :)
Hey my teacher Max, I would like to correct this sentence.I'm a NEW SPEAKER of the world.The grammer is correct , I don't mean that, I mean I'm a NEW SPEAKER of English.Sorry for this.
I have no problem saying think, but throw and cloths ? Ugh, impossible, it sounds so awkward
The s just after th is so hard to say 😭
Don't worry, you're not alone!
I would like to hear you tell my name 😉
:-)
i want to make one question why i understand more Australia accent than U .K
It probably depends on the Australian ;). I have a very weak accent, but there are some Australians that foreigners find very hard to understand.
Hi , Max ! Each language has its peculiarities in pronunciation. Just as I'll never pronounce the TH sound correctly, you'll never pronounce correctly the RR sound as in CORRER (To run ) Try it ! I promise I will not laugh
Cristiano Sousa correr(portuguese) is pretty similar to coger(spanish), the only difference between them is the last "r" pronouce.
Yes, it is quite difficult! But I actually have more difficulties with the word "cerrar". ;)
I need learn english helpme please i have 46 old year
but don't is because speack fast is because intonation
OK :)
Some native English speakers change "TH" voice to "V" sound and voiceless to "F" sound.
Three = Free.
With = Wiv.
I'm Indian.
I like you.
Nobody asked you
My ears can not tell the differences between th (unvoiced) and f, or th (voiced) and d.
I like so much your ????!!!!!!????!!!!
Thanks! Me too :D.
The ancient inhabitants of the Canary Islands generally communicated by whistling. And in the Russian language there are sounds Щ (SНCH) and Ц (TS). So these THs did not frighten me. 😎
You're full of very interesting facts! :)
And that's good to know ;).
Good
This lesson is very sexy.(I am from Russia).
thank god we indian have a special sound for this "TH"
Hello madam, you totally look like Indian lady
Sorry but made it hard to learn:)
Thank you
You're welcome! And thank you for your comments :).
