Homophones are words with different spellings,  

different meanings, but they are  pronounced exactly the same way.

We have two words today: 

thrown a ceremonial chair and thrown to propel with force

So to say these words correctly we  are going to start with that t h  

sound th. Your tongue comes out of your mouth for  the sound and you need to have space between your  

teeth and your tongue so the air can move over  your tongue and out of your mouth. I tell people  

not to touch their teeth with their tongue even  though sometimes they can touch slightly on the  

sides. Just because if you touch the front teeth,  you close the ability for the air to come out,  

and then it sounds like t and we  don't want that we want a th th

You can see my tongue sort of  makes a little cup. th th th

Then from there we are going to move to  that r sound. To do this the tip of your  

tongue is inside of your mouth and it's either  pointed down or flipped back. My tip is for this  

take your time this is a super  difficult sound combination  

so practice moving slowly let's  try it together. thr thr thr

After you get good at that you can  go a little bit faster. But again my  

tip is - take your time at first and  really get the feel for that sound.

Next we're going to move to that long o and  to do this your mouth opens wide and then  

it puckers. Your tongue tip will be down low and  then it'll move to about the middle of the mouth.  

And then end by touching the tip of the tongue  to the back of the top front teeth nor that n,  

air moves out of your nose. Let's put  it all together and go slowly at first 

throne thrown throne 

throne thrown throne throne thrown throne

And now for a sentence; The queen had thrown her crown on the throne.

Give it a try I know people are going to  notice the difference. If you found this
