If your language does not have an H sound in, then you may have problems pronouncing certain words in English.

Here are some techniques that help you create this sound:

• Pant like a dog and feel your stomach bounce in and out.

• Steam up a mirror.

• Practise saying the H in front of a candle – the flame should flicker when you pronounce it properly.

Careful not to pronounce the H sound when there isn’t one there!

For example: honour, hour, the letter H!
