Hi everyone this is Jennifer from Tarle speech with your pronunciation question.
Today’s question is a spelling question again and it is how do we pronounce the letters t c h when we see them in a word.
So when we see these three letters t c h we are just going to pronounce a ch sound.
So to say that c h sound the ch sound what you’re going to do is
your lips are going to be rounded
you’re going to touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth to start that sound a
nd then your tongue is going to pull towards the back of your mouth

Now for some practice. I’m going to try something a little bit new some of you have been asking for more practice so what I’m going to do is I’m going to say a word I’m going to pause and then you can repeat it okay everybody ready here we go:

dispatch dispatch

stopwatch stopwatch

patch patch

mismatch mismatch

dispatch dispatch

wristwatch wristwatch

stretch stretch

scratch scratch

rematch rematch

latch latch

fetch fetch

etch etch

catch catch

match match

which which

batch batch

notch notch

glitch glitch

switch switch

So again when you see the three letters tch you can just think about saying CH. One sound and to do that your lips are rounded, the tongue touches the teeth to start and then pulls back.

Give it a try people are going to notice the difference.
