⟨sh⟩
From Teflpedia
⟨sh⟩ is an English consonant digraph combining the letters S and H. It very reliably is pronounced as an Sh phoneme /ʃ/.
Exceptions[edit | edit source]
⟨sh⟩ can occur across syllable boundaries (in which case it’s not a digraph), especially when the prefixes dis- or mis- are added to words; for example, disharmony, dishearten, mishandle, mishap, mishear, mishit
Note that disheveledAmE/dishevelledBrE is di-shev-elled, not *dis-hev-elled.
Silent "h"
