I have difficulty in pronouncing these consonant clusters, such as in the phrase "invent the wheel". My question is, is there an audible release of air for the /t/? And what is the position of the tongue? Normally, for /t/ the tip of the tongue is on the gum ridge, and for /ð/ behind the upper front teeth or between the front teeth. Should I adjust the position of the tongue for /t/ in this consonant cluster?
I hope someone will enlighten me on this matter.
