In today’s agent training, you will learn more advanced pronunciation skills
That would make anyone’s accent sound exactly like the British
These are quite superb pronunciation skills
So even in full view, the perfect English pronunciation can let it go without a trace.
In summary
This pronunciation training
Only for authentic British people!
Please sit down
Today, you will learn the following skills: embedded sound, ellipsis omitted, speech assimilation, reading
They do listen very sexy, but believe me
They are also the sword of Damocles.
Embedded sound
Hidden phonemes will intrude between words in English sentences
These sounds or phonemes are:
E.g
For those non-British English listeners, this may sound normal
But for trained British English listeners
You may find that this is not 100% natural
Listen again
Did you hear the gap between “you” and “enough”?
“Embedded Tone” adds a /w/ to ‘you’ and ‘enough’
This is because when the word ‘you’ is read
The mouth is like this
Just like
“ooh”
When we read these two words together
Will send out a continuous tone similar to the mouth type
In the case just mentioned, “ooh” and /w/ are quite similar
So this sounds like this
Another example of embedded sounds
Between the words “go” and “out”
/w/ This tone is again embedded
Of course other examples exist
Look at me embed a /r/ tone in this sentence and you won’t realize it at all
So dangerous
usually
British English does not emit /R/ at the end of a word
We will say like this:
Instead of:
However, when the next word begins with a vowel
In this case, issue the /R/ tone to connect two words
Now, please repeat with me
I also mentioned /j/
Can also be embedded in those two words
/j/ This tone will be embedded
why? Because ‘I’ ends with /ɪː/
The continuous tone closest to /ɪː/ is
therefore
Although there is something wrong, there is an embedded sound
It sounds like native English people
The next word starts with a vowel
At this time, you will notice such a pattern
When the next word begins with a vowel, we only embed a sound
Now, finish training and contact me
Embedding of /w/
Embedding of /j/
Embedding of /r/
The next pronunciation skill is “reading”
If the Russians learned these
The end of the world is coming
“Reading” means that a word ends with a consonant
And similar to the beginning of the next word
E.g
The last consonant /s/ in “This” is pronounced until the next word
Let it sound like
Finally, they all sound like together
The first syllable fell to a weak state
It sounds like: /ðə/
same:
Let us look at a few more examples:
As you can see, these are all super secret things
The next one is “voice assimilation”
This means that in order to connect single-word words, some pronunciations will change
Here are some common examples:
We found that when a word ends with T
And another word starts with Y
Both are connected by /tʃ/
Some other common examples are
This became
You may ask such an important question:
T will again be connected via /tʃ/ with Y
When D follows Y
It doesn’t sound like /tʃ/
Sounds like /dʒ/
The usual examples of such a class are:
It becomes:
Or, generally speaking:
Wait, you already know
Similarly, the word “Handbag” looks like:
So there is such a question: Is it secretly “Hand burger”?
These tips, these information should not be leaked out
So we reached the final key
“The vowel omitted”
A common example of ellipsis ellipsis is: When a word ends with T or D
Typically in a consonant concatenation
The next word begins with a consonant
T or D will be removed or omitted
what? What is a consonant?
Glad you raised this question
There are no stupid questions, only stupid humans
Consonants are a series of consonants
Think of a word ending with “xt” or “st”
Words like “Next” and “Last”
We have already mentioned that “last year” should sound like:
We can also omit T, so it sounds like:
The same is true for “Next year”:
We omit T and we become:
It’s easy
Just skip T or D
But don’t always do this
If such a word appears alone, or next to a word that begins with a vowel
You can’t miss the final T and D pronunciations
For example: the word “Last”
Alone, T is to pronounce
But if it is “Last week”
The next word begins with a consonant rather than a vowel
It can be like this
But if it starts with a vowel
For example: “Last Apple”
You should send a T
Instead of:
Some other common examples are:
In this case, it is very dangerous to mix two s together
then
Other common examples of “vowel ellipsis” are:
Became
In this case, the sound of th is completely omitted
Became a medium vowel
In fact, “How’s the…?”
You seem to be ready for your final quiz
You may want to check if someone is a spy or an authentic British person.
If so, let them repeat the signal
If they are authentic British people, they can send these sounds
And the word is perfect
Otherwise, they are definitely a spy.
At last
