Tha i fuar.

the pronunciation between ee and e can be very confusing….be careful with that.

tha e – he, it is (eh)
tha i – she is (ee)

these can often sound the same when spoken but clearly they are not.

The weather is feminine but sometimes ee sounds like eh.

(Im always saying something which isnt right….My accent sounds like between ee and eh)
