   Be that as it may, you can still use the popular etymology to remember that it is indeed pronounced as “thresh-hold”, i.e. / ˈθrɛʃhəʊld / (thresh-həuld) in the UK resp. / ˈθrɛʃhoʊld / (thresh-hoh’ld) in the US. For native speakers, the major challenge is naturally its spelling, not the pronunciation.
