  11. Sounds link. • Consonant to consonant linking • When a word ends in a consonant sound and the following word begins with the same consonant sound, we don't pronounce two sounds - both sounds are pronounced together as one. • I'm a bit tired • We have a lot to do • Tell me what to say • She's slept for three hours • I've finished

  12. Sounds disappear. • When the sounds /t/ or /d/ occur between two consonant sounds, they will often disappear completely from the pronunciation. • I'm going nex(t) week • That was the wors(t) job I ever had! • Jus(t) one person came to the party! • I can'(t) swim

  13. Sounds disappear. • When a word ends in a consonant sound and the following word begins with a consonant sound, depending on the particular sounds, the last sound of the first word or both the last sound and the first sound of the next word can change. • Examples • Good girl. She's a good girl. (goog girl) • Speed boat. I've never been in speed boat. (speeb boat) • Can go. We can go now. (cang go)
