For example, the most difficult words to pronounce are: "three" - usually pronounced /fri:/or /tri:/, "thirteen" and "thirty", "though", "thought" (often pronounced /to:t/). Some people, younger students especially, feel silly trying to put their tongue a bit in front of the teeth...and they never try it again!
