Hello,

sometimes it is difficult to pronounce some voices  fluently in different sentences or phrases like:

a)    s + th as in "several times this year"  (How do you pronounce it?)
b)    th + ch as in "with children"  (th became silent due to "ch" power - I know that there are many phonetics rules, but I am just asking you how do you pronounce! )
c)     's + th as in there's this  man (not so hard)
d)     d + th  as in "outside the town" (d goes in th, so I say "outsithe town")

Any help?

Thank you in advance,

Dean

A good way to learn and practice difficult sound sequences is to repeat them aloud, exaggerating the pronunciation of each letter or syllable.  Do it very slowly at first.
