What is the pronunciation of h The eighth-most common letter in English is H. It is found in words with a frequency of 4.2%. It modifies the pronunciation of certain consonants and is considered an allophone of /s/ in most Spanish-speaking countries. H is also the voiceless form for the following vowel. This article explains how this sound is pronounced in various languages.
Romance phoneme /h/
Romance language (/h) was originally pronounced silently with the 'h' sound. The phoneme has been lost in most southern languages, but it is still used. Spanish has the /h/ sound in words like huelga, hache. In some Latin words, the 'h' is silent, making it easy to write and pronounce the silent letter.
Slavic languages use /f/
The sound '/f/' is not native to any Slavic language. Protoslavic saw it used as a variant form of 'chw", the original word. Words were pronounced either with a 'chw" or an "f" during the 14th- and 15th centuries. However, the sound of '/f/ was retained in both written form (and pronunciation). Today, /f/ appears almost exclusively in foreign languages.
/s/ in Spanish-speaking countries is an allophone of the /x
The allophone is one of the sounds in Spanish. Its pronunciation in Spanish is based on the way it's pronounced. The pronunciation of the Spanish word's' is the same as that of the English word's' in most Spanish-speaking countries. The phoneme/s' can be pronounced in the exact same way as English but is represented instead by the letter ‘j’.
The glottal fricative /h> occurs in a voiced context
A glottal fricative is a consonant with a restricted articulation such as the /h/ consonant. It is an example for a transitional glottis state, and it produces turbulence when spoken. Historical reasons have preserved the term "glottal fricative".
/h> stands for silent letters without pronunciation
Silent letters do not have pronunciation. However, the sound h can still be heard. The silent letter is used to indicate length, hiatus and many other things. The silent h, also known as the term chimp, is often the last letters of a word. The 'h' can also be a digraph, and is common in French. Depending on your accent, it can be used as a silent or a first or last letter.
German word /h>
You may have noticed the /h/ sound in German for "cookie". This is because it is a vowel, but it is pronounced differently from the English word. It is sometimes pronounced with a silent "dehungsh", which is a common error made by many when learning German. These words are examples of words that employ this pronunciation.
German word /th>
While the English language retains some of its dental fricatives (like those in German), they have lost them. Around the 10thcentury, German consonants switched from /thd/ /td/. All West Germanic languages were affected, except English. A comparison with the Greek theta led to the German word "th", which was selected as the replacement consonant. The cognate word, "think", was written thenken.
