Will you even need to pronounce TH (in 50 years)?

Language is constantly evolving, influenced by interactions with other languages, historical events, technological developments and simply the passage of time. It is this vitality that helps us to communicate with each other as the world changes around us. Pronunciations also change over time, as different accents and dialects migrate into the mainstream conversation. This article takes a look 50 years into the future, and predicts what sounds will change, and which might disappear altogether. Read more.
At the moment, however, TH is still a critical sound in standard American English. If you have difficulty pronouncing this sound (or any others), and don't have 50 years to wait, contact Clearly Speaking today for help with accent reduction.
