Proper Pronunciation Guide

further

[fɝ ðɚ]

Tips:

  • Pronounce both the letters “ur” and “er” as the pure R-Vowel—the first stressed
    /ɝ/  and the second unstressed
    /ɚ/ 
     .
  • Pronounce the letters “th” as the voiced fricative
    /ð/— and not as
    /d/.

Practice Sentences:

 They wandered further and further from their campsite.
They asked him for a further explanation.
