    The /ʃ/ sound in English can be spelled in 11 different ways, such as "sh" in shirt and "ch" in chute. Some English speakers may pronounce words with /ʃ/ differently, like saying "issue" as /ˈɪsju/. The spelling "ti" only represents the /ʃ/ sound before vowels in suffixes like "tion" and "tial", and does not occur at the end of words.

    The /ʃ/ sound can be spelled eleven ways in English: shirt, sugar, chute, action,

    issue, ocean, conscious, mansion, schwa, anxious, and special. Some speakers of
    English do not use /ʃ/ in all of those words. For example, issue may be pronounced
    as /ˈɪsju/ by some speakers of British English. This phoneme is spelled ti only
    when the ti comes before a vowel in certain suffixes, as in nation and initial.
    Thus, this phoneme does not actually occur at the end of English words with the
    spelling "ti".
