Tasha pronounces the h in the words hour, honest, and heir. Austin pronounces the h in the words holly, hold and hand. Who is pronoucing the words correctly?

Verified Answer :

the h should be silent

Austin is pronouncing the words correctly, while Tasha is pronouncing them wrongly. 

Tasha is pronouncing the 'h' in the words 'hour, honest, and heir,' which should be silent. Austin on the other hand, is pronouncing the 'h' in the words 'holly, hold, and hand,' which is correct. A simple way to figure this out is to sound out the words for yourself.
