I am totally adding þese back to my keybord.
In that case also add ð. If you say the words "think" and "this" out loud, they use different "th"-sounds. "These" would be "ðese", and "think" would be "þink".
Now I know how to say "ðese nuts" if I ever go time traveling!
I wonder what nuts of the ðese variety taste like.
Wasn't that a misconception and they both make either of those sounds?
In Old English, ⟨ð⟩ (called ðæt) was used interchangeably with ⟨þ⟩ to represent the Old English dental fricative phoneme /θ/ or its allophone /ð/, which exist in modern English phonology as the voiceless and voiced dental fricatives both now spelled ⟨th⟩.
I don't know, that's a level deeper than I know about, but you could be right.
See my post to the reply above yours :)
Did Old English not have both voiced and voiceless dental fricatives? Modern German has neither θ nor ð, and Old English sharing so much it wouldn't surprise me, but O.E. obviously acquired or inherited them somewhere - was the voiced distinction introduced later? Probably not from Latin, since it didn't have those either.
Sorry, I forgot to put the last paragraph as a quote.

Dang, the creator put a paywall on it.
It's the same with the letter f, from what I remember it was pronounced as an f or a v, depending on what letters are before and after it, similar to lenition in Irish, or s being pronounced as both s and z in Romance languages depending on what's around it.
