Can you make this sound Jow Forums ?
I wouldn't worry about it.
>'Th' sound to vanish from English language by 2066 because of multiculturalism, say linguists
>Visitors expecting to hear the Queen’s English spoken on the streets of London in 50 years may need to "fink" again.
>By 2066, linguists are predicting that the "th" sound will vanish completely in the capital because there are so many foreigners who struggle to pronounce interdental consonants - the term for a sound created by pushing the tongue against the upper teeth.

Which th sound you mean? þ (thorn) or ð (eth)?
Yeah we have it in cyrillic, it was represented by the letter ѳ. But during revolutionary reform it was merged with ф.
Never got why people find it difficult. Rolling an R for example is much harder.
anglos can naturally make that sound just like snakes
Help for those who can't.
>Place your tongue 1cm infront of your two front teeth
>Your tongue should be mainly be pressed up against your top teeth 1cm back
>It should also very lightly rest on your bottom lip and bottom row of teeth
>I find I also bite down a tiny bit on my tongue for the force against the top teeth
>Now just blow air out your mouth like a whisper, it should sound like some shitty "sss" sound, like you have a lisp
>You should also feel like you can "chew down" on that sound, to add more emphasis or pressure
>As you make that sound now "chew down" on it and with a flick pull back and open up your mouth a tiny bit, all under a second
>it should sound like a whispered "the"
hopefully it helps
nothing hard about rolling an R
yes of course, it's essential to correctly pronounce ث
shitty ass language
