Examples of pronouncing the H in Anthony? Ro Thorpe 18:15, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Someone I knew at school. Maybe it's standard in the North East, I don't know. Peter Jackson 09:59, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
Better remove it then. After all, we're talking normal pronunciation here. Ro Thorpe 20:33, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
  • Oxford Dictionary of Pronunciation, 2001: Br t; Am θ, t
  • Cambridge English Pronouncing Dictionary, 18th ed, 2011: Br t, θ; Am θ, t; θ becoming commoner in Br
  • BBC Pronouncing Dictionary of British Names, 2nd ed, OUP, 1983: t, θ
  • Longman Pronouncing Dictionary, 2000: t predominating in Br, θ in Am
The deliberately vague wording I used seems accurate enough, though you might want more detail. Wikipedia cites a source I haven't checked saying θ usual in Aus too. Peter Jackson 12:04, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
