Why do foreigners have such a hard time pronouncing this?

>>77520532
why cant anglos roll their r

That's a Greek letter you subhuman
Anglos happened to say it because of their inbred face structure

>>77520582

>greek letter

Wrong. Everything on earth belongs to America.

>>77520532
What foreigners exactly? Many European languages do not have aspirated plosives. Also Japanese doesn't. It becomes even harder when the dental plosives are absent. Indian languages aspirate all plosives so it's not at all a problem for us. The Japanese usually end up pronouncing it like 's'.

>>77520560
only subhuman languages require a rolled r

>>77521169
its the dental fricative not dental aspirant

the only big languages that use it are english, arabic, icelandic, greek, yuro spanish and burmese

>>77521303
Also some Italian dialects, a few African languages (Swahili I think and maybe some other big ones), a bunch of Turkic languages, Welsh...

But yeah, you're right, it *is* rare as h*ck in the overall big picture. Probably because it's fucking awkward to pronounce, even Anglos drop a fuckload of [θ] and [ð] in casual speech (you don't notice it, but you do, also you approximant that shit up a lot). Although I'm the one to blooming talk here, what with the Russian retroflex sibilants and ы, lel

I don't get it, isn't θ the aspirated form of the soft t (unvoiced form of the 'th' sound in 'the')?

Aspiration is different, it's pronouncing a consonant with a concurrent exhale. [θ] is literally just putting your tongue on your front teeth and saying "t"

>>77521589
no its not a plosive

>>77521704
k, g, ch, j, t, d (retroflex), t, d (dental), p, b
Suppose these are all plosives. Isn't θ just the aspirated form of t (retroflex)? What is the difference between t̪ʰ and θ? Is there a difference between 'th' in English and थ in Hindi? थ is thought to be the aspirated version of त (dental unvoiced plosive). For example Thames is written as थेम्स. Isn't theta just the aspirated unvoiced dental plosive? Why is it called a fricative like 'f'? Is that because the unvoiced dental plosive itself is absent from English (while the voiced dental plosive exists like the 'th' in 'the')?

>>77520532
If you are talking about the difference between they and day I can understand because they are basically the same sound. We have them in words like "donde" where both are pronounced but the other th is easy as fuck.

Because foreigners aren't even human

It's a combination of not reading enough, not caring and combined with the fact that it rarely impedes communication, there is very little reason for lowest common denominator to care.

Why don't foreigners capitalize nouns?

No, it's not. Why Spaniards suck so much at English? Example: they pronounce "FIS" instead of "Fish" they think that you have to pronounce the words in English as in Spanish.

Yes, they are that stupid.

Is it the same as ü in Turkish? Also why do you capitalise every noun? Doesn't the utility of capitalisation go away then?

Pronounced here "DEH"
Could drive you insane. Israeli accent is so degenerate and funny though.

>>77520532
I'll tellyou why. We use english because of it's easyness and simplicity. "Th" sound is internationalyrecognised as useless so we don't care abou the sound.

Also you're from the anglosphere so you're the last person who should say about other languages because you can't speak foreign languages for shit. Any simple sound that isn't in your language transform you into a helpless infant who requires special care.

>What is the difference between t̪ʰ and θ
One is an aspirated stop while the other is a fricative. The best way I can describe θ is by resting your front teeth some distance away from the tip of your tongue and passing air through it. You should be able to sustain the sound (like the fricative /s/) which you can't do with थ.
Most South Asian languages approximate the English /θ/ with थ but weirdly the Arabic /θ/ with /s/, for example أكثر (akthar) becomes अक्सर (aksar).

>>77535032
wew about that last part it's probably because ث is pronounced like /s/ in Persian.

>>77535357
>>77535032
Just put the tip of your tongue between your teeth and blow air, and you got a voiceless th (Arabic ث). Use your vocal cords, and you have a voiced th (Arabic ذ). It's that simple.

>>77520532
literally impossible

>>77520532
Not many languages have it; to my knowledge Greek, English and proper (European) Spanish have this sound. We should form a club or something.
