How to pronounce [h]

      

Relax your vocal tract and keep your mouth slightly open, allowing the breath to pass freely through the throat without vocal cord vibration. The sound of [h] is similar to the “h” in the English word “hello.”

[h] is a voiceless glottal fricative, produced in the throat area, unlike consonants formed by touching or narrowing lips, teeth, or tongue. It relies solely on the flow of breath through the open vocal tract, without any significant obstruction.
