161: Th (not ð nor θ) May 18, 2015

There are a lot of words in English that have a 'th' that is not pronounced ð nor θ, such as the word 'pothole'. This word derives from Middle English word 'pot' which meant 'pit' and is perhaps of Scandinavian origin, combined with the word 'hole', which as may be expected means 'hole'.
