@@delrey9923 Palatalization happens mainly in informal conversation situations. Natives don't palatalize in formal situations like academic or business environments.

@@franklinperdomo7398 if the ed has a vowel sound, the d sound ofen elids. If not, use germination.

@@wa3618 in both cases elision should happen in fast speech. TH is a weak sound so we would hear long S in the first case. In the second case, d is elided. Cf. My recent videon on connected speech. Thanks for the question.

@ Thank you so much for this answer it was helpful

미국 영어에는 'orange'의 'or' 조합이나 'boy'의 이중모음 외에는 'o' 소리가 없습니다 (caught-cot merger). 'already'는 강세가 두 번째 음절에 있기 때문에 첫 음절은 슈와(schwa) 소리여야 합니다.

I am not knowledgeable enough to make a video on that topic. I will inform you one if i come across a good video on that topic.

It is due to palatalization: alveolar d assimilates to j because of palatal r

@@NanheeByrnesPhD thanks thanks and may God bless Ameen ameen ameen

@@afraazfaaz1834Thank you. Focus on listening. Watch vowels and consonants videos first to make sure you have the foundation. Then move on to connected speech and various stress patterns of English. I have a video on how to master pronunciation.

You are right

So, I think the merger concept in this case is just not scientific.

@@calincucuietu8220 linguistics is more like biology than physics to me. So scientific in that sense.

@@andydeschenes6728 What an interesting assertion!

@@Skygt2RS good q. Didn't think about that. Thank you for commenting!

@@cejannuzi hi, thank you for the thoughtful comments. 1. To me, vocalic r is just a vowel colored by r, so I don't think it adds complexity in vowel phoneme classification. Whether vocalic rs need to have their own IPA symbols is still a contentious topic among linguists. 2. Canadians are viewed as speaking the General Accent. 3. True, there are many allophones in phonological settings.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD The reason post-vocalic r and l do more than add color is that speech is not spoken in segments. Speech is really co-articulated. So what native speakers think are 'units' of sound in their own grasp of their spoken language is quite different than the approaches that are used in academic niches to analyze speech, including what gets used in ELT as 'phonetics and phonology'. Literacy in an alphabetic language also produces perceptual artifacts of phonetic, phonological and morphophonological nature, and linguistics has tried to systematize them with tools like IPA. But IPA and the like create segments where none really exist in speech.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD 2. Canadians are viewed as speaking the General Accent. By whom? Perhaps by some academics classifying things. But most people don't understand this. They think along national and nationalist lines. Also, a lot of EFL teachers and students don't understand any of that. They think people speak General American or British RP and then are shocked when they go abroad to find out that the models in the classroom don't sound much of anything like real speech in most places.

@@cejannuzi you have good points. That's why there's the distinction of phonemes, phones, rhythm, pitch contour, intonation, etc.

Thank you for your comment! It was meant to help non-native speakers understand which dialect of American English they should learn.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD - I think that American English west of the Rockies, roughly speaking, more closely approximates the sort of "CNN English" that learners of American English often want to emulate (notwithstanding the SoCal and Inland California accents) -- compared to the Inland North, North Central, and Midland dialects.

@@cacogenicist No objections to your statements.

@@orhoushmand85 not releasing ( holding) sounds much better and helps you speak faster.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD It doesn't sound better, it's supposed to be audible.

@@orhoushmand85 listen how natives speak before trying to speak.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD They speak like that, but I don't.

Thank you for your comments. 1. The situation you’re asking about relates to a part of linguistics that looks at how words are pronounced in real speech, rather than how they are listed in a dictionary. This area of study is called phonology, which is different from phonetics. It focuses on how sounds change when people speak naturally in conversations, where sounds can affect each other. 2. Palatalization is a change that can happen when people speak quickly or informally, especially when words are not emphasized. In more formal speaking situations, or among highly educated people, Americans usually don’t use palatalization.

@Halucygeno Palatalization occurs during assimilation when someone speaks English fast and fluently. Together with link-ups, assimilation is one of the causes why non-native speakers of English find it difficult to understand natural English spoken by native speakers.

@@professorBonna hi. The IPA symbols and their sounds are on my TH-cam intro.

@@NanheeByrnesPhD hi am fan you but tips

@@meslzy I left silence so that the sound could be etched into the brain.

@@nightmajic It's Korean pronunciation. Thank you.

1./jə/는 schwa와 j (glide 또는 semi-vowel: 영어에서는 자음임)로 구성되어 있으며, 한국어로는 "여"처럼 들립니다. 2.Schwa 때문에 /jə/는 강세가 없는 음절로, 강세가 없는 음절을 가진 단어는 종종 모음 소리를 완전히 잃고(elision이라고 함) 더 짧아집니다. (I have a video on elision, presented as a part of connected speech on my channel) 3."Particularly"는 명확하게 발음할 때 5개의 음절 (par-tic-u-lar-ly)로 이루어져 있습니다. 그러나 거의 아무도 이 단어를 완전히 발음하지 않습니다. 이는 흔한 단어이기 때문입니다. 영어에서 자주 사용되는 많은 단어들이 음절이 줄어드는 엘리션(elision) 현상을 보여줍니다. 원어민들이 빠르게 말할 때는 4 음절로 들리기도 합니다: par-tic-lar-ly 또는 3 음절 par-tic-ly, 더 줄어들어 "par-tic" 또는 "par-tly"처럼 2개의 음절로 들릴 수 있습니다. 이 elision이 영어 듣기가 어려운 또 다른 이유입니다.

Thank you for the comment. To speak in the rhythm of English, you need to know how to divide phrases into rhythm units (or feet), which in English are normally headed by a stressed syllable and optional unstressed syllables: unstressed syllables usually attach to the left side of the stressed syllable. You can find examples of rhythm units and phrases in my video on English feet." th-cam.com/video/MZ3a94xz61w/w-d-xo.html
