How to pronounce the - English Pronunciation There are two ways to pronounce "the":- The first and most common one is short, and sounds like "thuh" Weak Weak pronunciation Sounds like "thuh". It rhymes with "duh" and if you say "mother" it rhymes with the "mo" and the "ther". As a general rule, we use the weak pronunciation with words that start with a consonant or words that begin with a vowel. For example: "The cat sat on the mat." Some words begin with a vowel, but are pronounced as if they begin with a consonant. For example: the word 'university' starts with a /j/ sound, which is a consonant. Strong The second is longer and sounds like "thee":- Strong pronunciation Sounds like "thee". It rhymes with pea, fee, me. We use the strong pronunciation with words that start with a vowel or sound as if they do. For example:- "the apple" "the end" "the hour" 'the ice' We also use the strong 'the' when we want to stress the word, regardless of whether it begins with a vowel or a consonant. For example:- "I spoke to Kevin Costner the other day.""

A scrap of paper leads a sailor to his wife This story is about love, and war. And a mysterious piece of paper. Fifty-three years ago, Royce Thorpe was cleaning a US Navy barracks in California when he found a scrap of paper. He didn't look at it, but he stuck it in his wallet so he could throw it away later. That bit of paper would change his life. He was assigned to a ship that was headed for Vietnam, and during the trip he spent a night standing watch in Hong Kong. When he finally looked at that paper, he saw the Oregon address of a woman named Mary. Mary was still in high school. Mary told him about high school, and Royce wrote about life in the Navy. The day they met, they shook hands and looked at each other. Dallas, Oregon had a population of a few thousand people. They corresponded for three years. Finally, the pair met up again, when Royce had a few days of leave in California. On December 18, 2015, Mary and Royce celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. To this day, they're not sure how they managed to meet.
