How do you pronounce the "cheers" sound?
It's easy to confuse 'truth' and 'cheers'.
Sometimes i can not send the correct sound.

The words are quite different. Do you mean the "th" sound in "truth" and the "ch" sound in "cheers"?
I know "th" can be quite difficult for non-English speakers but one way to improve your proununciation is to keep listening to native speakers and and try and emulate the sounds they make.
Not sure if that answers your question or if I have missed your point entirely.

The beginning of “truth” sounds a little bit like hanyu pinyin chu. The beginning sound of “cheers” is closer to hanyu pinyin qi — especially in US English. As far as the final consonants (especially the th), you’ll need to search for a video or get someone to demonstrate it for you, preferably with video, or someone experienced enough to hear your tongue position and give accurate feedback.
