I'm not an expert and I don't know what program you're using, but there's certainly some info on the web on how to open .ogg files with your program.Thank you, but my PC won't open the file :-(
Not in the northeast. I don't remember hearing it since I left the third grade (about 1949.)Not in England, but many people say it in the US. See Phonological history of wh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and also Voiceless labio-velar approximant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Old English Dictionaryhwíl [] f (-e/-a) while, time; a long time; hour; nú ~e just now, a while ago; ealle ~e all the while; óðre ~e…óðre ~e at one time…at another time; adv ~e once; þá ~e (þe) while, whilst, meanwhile
I'm not sure how to read /ðh/ (with final /h/?), but /θ/ in /wɪθ/ ('with') is often unreleased, which makes it sound like /ð/.I don't want to make a new thread for my question so I'll ask it here:
I heard a "strange" pronunciation of the word with - /wɪðh/. It was pronounced by a native speaker. Is it ok?:shock:
