Hi!

This is Amy with Go Places English and today I want to talk about the pronunciation of the sound combination ESTH in American English.

These are difficult sounds to pronounce together.

I think the best way to approach this sound combination is with some examples. Let’s look at the word Esthetician. ESTH, esthetician; ESTH, esthetician; ESTH, esthetician. The challenge of this sound combination is the ES sound followed immediately by the TH sound. ESTH, esthetician.

Let’s practice together.

You can instantly improve your English and sound more like a native speaker by practicing and saying the sound combination ESTH correctly.

When you master American English pronunciation, you can speak with confidence knowing that your pronunciation is accurate and listeners will understand you.
