How to Pronounce "the" in English

Normally, we pronounce "the" with a short sound (like "thuh"). But when "the" comes before a
vowel sound, we pronounce it as a long "thee".

vowel sound we write we say

A the apple thee apple

E the egg thee egg

I the ice-cream thee ice-cream

O the orange thee orange

U the ugli fruit thee ugli fruit

It is important to understand that it is what we say that matters, not what we write. It is the sound
that matters, not the letter used in writing a word. So we use a long "thee" before a vowel sound,
not necessarily before a vowel. Look at these cases:

we write with we say with

the house consonant (h) thuh house consonant sound

the hour consonant (h) thee our vowel sound

the university vowel (u) thuh youniversity consonant sound

the umbrella vowel (u) thee umbrella vowel sound

Emphatic the [thee]


When we wish to place emphasis on a particular word, we can use "emphatic the" [thee],
whether or not the word begins with a consonant or vowel sound. For example:
A: I saw the [thuh] President yesterday.
B: What! The [thee] President of the United States?
A: Yes, exactly.
