The thread about pronouncing 'h', and other pronunciation problems, seems to 
have missed the most important part of learning correct pronunciation.  First 
you start with listening.  At first the student won't be able to differentiate 
between saqy, 'men and man', but gradually, as he learns to hear the 
difference, it is easier for him to learn how to form his mouth and make the 
difference.  And yes, it is important.  It is very confusing to students if 
they think that it is ' 1 men'  '2 men'.  Why,  then, is the singular written 
with an 'a'?
