Although it is spelled the same, the article 'the' can be pronounced in two different ways.

The article 'the' means that the noun that follows is a specific person or thing, normally pronounced 'tha'. When a speaker wants to emphasize that the noun following is not only a specific person or thing, but a 'one and only, specific' person or thing or 'especially' that person or thing, they pronounce 'the' as 'thee'.
