We have three words today:

throw which is to have like a tantrum, a small  blanket, to propel by force, to roll the dice,  

to throw shade - which is a look to direct a  facial expression, or to lose on purpose and

through to move from one side to the  other, continuing to a final destination,  

moving through the competition,  or from time to time

So so many definitions for these two  little words and that means we probably  

use them a lot so it's important to learn  these words. So the question was really about  

this word and this word but I also threw in  the past tense here so that you could see the  

different spellings. These two words here  are homophones they are pronounced exactly  

the same way; and i have another video on  those two words as well if you're interested.

So let's get started here. Again the  difference here is only going to be one  

sound. So let's tackle the beginning first.  So we're going to start with that th sound.  

I teach this sound as sticking your tongue  out and not touching your teeth. If you're  

a native speaker and you're watching this  yes you do touch the sides of your teeth.  

The reason I'm teaching it as don't touch your  teeth is because when you are a new learner,  

the sound is very difficult, and if you touch  your teeth, it's going to sound like a tug  

or a duh and we don't want that. So stick  your tongue out, make sure that air can move  

over your tongue so you're not touching the top  teeth, air is going to move out continuously.  

If you look my tongue looks like a little  cup in the middle and that is how the air  

moves over the top.

Next we're going to add that r sound, er,  

and you can see my tongue is out for that th then  I am pulling the tongue into my mouth. The back  

of my tongue is pulling way high up and the tip  of the tongue is either flipped back or it is  

pointing down. It is not touching the teeth. Think  about having square tense lips for that sound.  

I don't want my lips to be puckered  and I don't want my lips to be  

too relaxed. I want them to be tense and  think about having them in a square shape.

Now let's talk about these two vowel sounds.  For throw we are going to have the long  

o. To make the sound open wide and then  pucker. Your tongue is going to be pulled  

way high up in the back and the tip of the  tongue is going to be pointing down to start.  

o As you pucker the back of the tongue remains  high up and the front of the tongue will just  

flatten out pointing towards the middle of the  mouth and the tongue does not touch the teeth.

Let's put that all together throw throw throw.

Now for the word through this one's kind  of easy you don't open your mouth for that  

ew sound, you just pucker  ew. through through through

So we have throw throw throw  and through through through

All right and now for a sentence:  

Don't throw shade if you have to  go through the documents again.

Give it a try I know people are  going to notice the difference
