FH FH
We are going to have a look at the Gaelic sound made by the letters fh.
In most instances, the Gaelic fh sound is silent, with a few exceptions that we shall explore in a little bit. For now, the silent fh can be heard in m’ fhalt (my hair):
my hair
Also, in An Fhraing (France) and dà fhichead (forty):
France
forty
When fh does have a sound in some Gaelic words, it is pronounced like the English ‘h’, such as in fhèin or fhìn (self), fhathast (yet), and fhuair (got):
self
yet
got
