Typische Falle
Falsch I sink so.
Richtig I think so.
Das th fühlt sich beim ersten Mal falsch an — die Zunge zwischen den Zähnen wirkt übertrieben. Genau deshalb ersetzen es die meisten durch s oder f, und dann sagen sie ein anderes Wort: sink statt think, free statt three, mouse statt mouth. Übertreib ruhig: Ein zu deutliches th versteht jeder, ein s nicht.
