It is somewhat difficult to distinguish between the different "H" sounds, taking the TTS pronounciation quality into account. My understanding based on this course goes:
-
letter ع is mostly open "ah" with a hint of "h" before it in some cases
-
letter ه is "front h" like in "hat"
-
letter ح is like when you exhale in relief, very deep
-
letter ء sounds like when one is yawning, when standing on a line, and a glottal stop, when above ا, so it's probably more of a vowel
Anything incorrect or missing?
Why is it when i have what is an obvious typo in so many answers I give, it is flagged correct but the typo is pointed out and sometimes when it is an obvious typo it is not. I know the answer. I am hoping it will be corrected. On the other hand, i might get it eight right next time anyway.
I spelled Moroccan Morracan.
