Hi Billie, many thanks for your videos. I’ve been preparing for Delta M1 and your videos are amazing and super helpful when it comes to phonology. Thank you thank you thank you! 🙏 Could I just double check some metalanguage, if you don’t mind? Consonant to vowel linking > linking; consonant to consonant linking > gemination; consonant to near constant linking > assimilation; vowel to vowel linking > liaison or intrusion. Would you say these terms are correct? Many thanks again 🌟
THANKS A LOT, I been studying connected speach with differents teachers and ive never was able to understand but with your videos i learnt faster the things that i could't understood thanks aganing ill pracitice
Thanks a lot about your great lesson my amazing teacher you made me understand more about Linking words yet *i don't get understood while doing it two weeks ago i said "i wanna t eat " people thought that i was asking:" tea " 😅
Thanks a lot about your great lesson my amazing teacher keep up the good work!!!! I've been learning more from you I'd like you to talk about connected speach
🎉 nowadays people don't understand me while linking sounds i have understood it is about where i do indeed live yet i gotta keep speaking in the connected speach
Hello! The /l/ sound might just sound a tiny bit longer which gives you the impression that there are 2 /l/ sounds, but it's really just one. You would have to stop in between the two words if you wanted to say two separate /l/ sounds - and this would slow you down significantly. I hope this helps!
It is such a simple but too underestimated topic. Thank you for covering that. I have a question now. i can hear a kind of "r" where two "a" sounds link. For example, in "visa" + "application" I hear visaR application. also, Ameraica R is, China R is, etc. Was wondering if there is any rule which applies here. Thank you.
When we say ‘thank you’ /ˈθæŋk juː/, we customarily connect the /k/ and the /juː/ to form the sound of the letter Q /kjuː/. Is this according to a consonant+consonant rule, or is this a special isolated case?
Not really, elision is for /t/ mostly. In your example we have linking of two similar sounds /p/ and /b/. The /p/ is held and not released but moves into /b/.
Hello! Thank you for your question :-) In 'sleep better' there could be a flap t in the word 'better'. However, this is not a must. Many speakers will pronounce it with a /t/ sound instead. I use both! I think when I speak fast it tends to be a flap t because this allows me to speak faster, but when I speak more slowly to be easily understood it is often a /t/ sound. I hope this helps!

I really appreciate your efforts.
When you said feel lonely , I thought you said /l/ twice or it's me imagine ??
Hello! The /l/ sound might just sound a tiny bit longer which gives you the impression that there are 2 /l/ sounds, but it's really just one. You would have to stop in between the two words if you wanted to say two separate /l/ sounds - and this would slow you down significantly. I hope this helps!
@@BillieEnglishThanks a lot!
I got it ❤❤❤
Thank you very much!! I've got a question
Does linking occur when a word ends with "t or d" and the next one starts with "th"?
Yes it does!
@@BillieEnglish Thank you!!!
Could you teach with example?It is very good but I want to know about linking sounds anymore. part3..4....
Thank you for your comment - I will consider this for future videos or shorts!
It is such a simple but too underestimated topic. Thank you for covering that. I have a question now. i can hear a kind of "r" where two "a" sounds link. For example, in "visa" + "application" I hear visaR application. also, Ameraica R is, China R is, etc. Was wondering if there is any rule which applies here. Thank you.
Hello Mike! You can find out more about linking R & intrusive R in this video:
th-cam.com/video/AgmENVGIw38/w-d-xo.html
I realized that the 2nd and 3rd link appears in assimilation like ' No release' and 'no audible plosion' in my textbooks 🤯
Is C+C, where the first C is dropped, called elision? In "she's staying", can we speak of elision?
You are nice 👍.
Thank you 😊
Bad dog... in fact there are 2 /d/ sounds. The first one is unreleased, but it is there..
excuse me! i need the file PDF of Linking Sounds , can you send me. Thank you
When we say ‘thank you’ /ˈθæŋk juː/, we customarily connect the /k/ and the /juː/ to form the sound of the letter Q /kjuː/.
Is this according to a consonant+consonant rule, or is this a special isolated case?
That's because of a special kind of linking called catenation. You can learn more about it here:
th-cam.com/video/sQ369n0yJag/w-d-xo.html
Hello, isn´t that an example of an ASSIMILATION?
Do we have ellision in sleep better ?
Not really, elision is for /t/ mostly. In your example we have linking of two similar sounds /p/ and /b/. The /p/ is held and not released but moves into /b/.
can u add translate arabic language as a choice ? please
And why not in Greenlandic, too?
Yahahahyuk
I'mma understand more from the native English speakers
Nice, but kind of hialrious........Thanks anyway.
Sleep better....here, better is flap 't' or soft d ...where is flap t ?in this video, you spoke 'better' without flap t , but why?
Hello! Thank you for your question :-) In 'sleep better' there could be a flap t in the word 'better'. However, this is not a must. Many speakers will pronounce it with a /t/ sound instead.

@@BillieEnglish , I thought flat t was American English
mẹ T
Fc
/bæⁱdɒɡ/ not /bæⁱdɔːɡ/ in RP
british or american accent ?????
