You could also have: mouth, earth, bequeath, smooth (this last is usually pronounced with [�] though) and some less common ones: birth, girth, tooth Hope this helps. Alex (I�d be fascinated to know why you need this, by the way  )

I concur - very few verbs seem to end in /θ/! How about these? bath bɑθ (e.g. to bath a baby) - not to be confused with bathe (/beɪð/) which is to wash yourself or swim. worth (it �s very archaic to use this as a verb) berth (to berth a ship in harbour) Here are some more which end in [ð] (for contrast): clothe teethe breathe seethe scythe smooth soothe loathe |
