Ðis is true, if you want to replace th, ðat isn't even the right letter sometimes
I Þought Þorn was used for Þe beginning of words, while Þe eð was used oðerwise?
Two different sounds, þ is th like in thought, while ð is th like in the.
AFAIK, that's how IPA does it, but there aren't really any languages that use/used it like that consistently.
Icelandic says hello (save for a few exceptions).
