し：sounds like “she”

For the “Reading” column at the end, I would read those as the sounds of the letters correct? So “blood” would be pronounced as /chi/ and “father” would be pronounced as /chichi/?
Yes!
How can I ask questions in the forum

Why is 土 (tsuchi) pronounced like (to/do) in Google translate?
