How Do You Spell THORBERT?

Pronunciation: [θˈɔːbət] (IPA)

Thorbert is spelled with a silent 'h' and is pronounced as /ˈθɔrbərt/. The 'th' sound in the beginning is pronounced as a voiceless dental fricative, made by placing the tongue between the teeth and blowing air out. The 'o' is pronounced as a short vowel sound, and the 'r' sound is noticeable but not emphasized like in some other words. The spelling of Thorbert may be misleading, but understanding its phonetic transcription helps with proper pronunciation.
