Consonants Spelling Problem

Sometimes for Spanish speakers it is quite hard to differentiate the use of “b” and

“v’. they tend to pronounced both syllable identically. Similar case happened to the

first sound in “jeep” and its unvoiced equivalent sound in ‘cheap’.

Hindi speakers are also having problems in pronouncing the “th” sound as of in the
words “mouth” [maʊ⊖] and “think” [⊖ɪŋk]

Or Mother ['mʌðər], or lather ['lɑ:ðər] from soap
