Smile How to pronounce the word "the"
Hi all,

I'm new here. I am the mom of four boys. We have been having a debate for about two years now on how to pronouce the word "the" when followed by a vowel. I learned that it is pronounced with a long e sound when followed by a vowel as in "the end". Is this still true today?

Thanks. Amber
