called The, and the soft or aspiratc II heard il
Tin may. be called in. There ought to b
some wny Of distinguishing them apart othc
than by memory. We have eix articnlat,
sounds IN our language which are unprov1det
With single characters, viz, th, fih, sb. zh
ch, nE, and two Of these-zh aud fth-haya
no dtsrarls to represent them or designate
their sounds. Ch has the sound Of tAh, ant
may be called t*ha, as il chair, church. 81
bas the sound of fish, and may be called ISL o.
sae, as heard in wish OF sheep.
