How to say it

Say it as Ruth. Say the name on its own, unhurried, and let the last syllable finish. A name that trails off cannot be copied.

Igbo is a tonal language, so the pitch of a word carries meaning. The spelling above keeps the marks the app teaches, and the recording is a native speaker, not a machine voice.
