  I’ve paid keen attention to the English pronunciations here in the Uk, and I’ve come to find out that they don’t stress themselves to pronounce words ‘correctly’, as we non-natives are taught to. There’s a trick to their pronunciations and I’ve tagged it the “nobody-will-know” style. So for most    English speakers here, for example in pronouncing THOUGHT, instead of using their tongues in between their teeth to produce a theta sound, they rather use the F sound.  So when they say a sentence like “I THOUGHT you’ll be coming to the event”, you’ll hear: “I FOUGHT you’ll be coming to the event”. That’s the trick! 😂   So, dear non-native English speakers, stop stressing yourself and biting your tongues in attempt to pronounce words correctly, the owners of English don’t stress themselves.  ✅  Feel free to say: FREE instead of THREE, no body will know!  🤷‍♀️   ✅  Say VEM instead of THEM. No body will know!  🤷‍♀️ ✅  Say FREE FIRTY, instead of THREE THIRTY. No body will know.  🤷‍♀️ ✅  S
