1
Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today, let's look at the connected sounds in a short answer
4
where you're saying what you tried for the first time at a restaurant.
5
Let's take a look.
6
It seems crazy now.
7
It seems crazy.
8
So here the T will turn into a glottal stop.
9
It seems.
10
It seems crazy.
11
At the beginning of the sentence, the whole word it, because it's such a short
12
and common word gets reduced quite a lot and it blends with the next word.
13
It seems, it seems crazy, it seems crazy now, it seems crazy now, but I was already in college,
14
but I, we tap that t in but, but I was, was.
15
We reduce that uh in was, and that's just a very short quick uh sound.
16
But I was already in college.
17
Connect the in with the sound in college.
18
But I was already in college, already in college, the first time I had boba.
19
The first time.
20
The first time I had boba.
21
So here the two T sounds in first time connect.
22
The first time I had boba.
23
I'd never heard of it.
24
I'd never.
25
So we're going to put that D and the N together, and it's called a nasal release.
26
It's the N coming out of your nose as your tongue is saying D.
27
I'd nn.
28
I'd never.
29
I'd never heard of it at all when I was growing up.
30
Heard of it at all.
31
We're going to connect all of these short words here.
32
Of it at all.
33
The word at gets kind of reduced to something sounding quite a lot like the word It.
34
Heard of it at all.
35
Heard of it at all.
36
Heard of it at all.
37
I'd never heard of it at all when I was growing up.
38
When nigh connect the nuh to the i sound, and was also gets that same reduced vowel.
39
I'd never heard of it at all when I was growing up.
40
The city I grew up in didn't have, didn't have.
41
Glottal stop there with the T before the H.
42
Didn't have.
43
The city I grew up in didn't have much in the way.
44
Much in the.
45
So we connect the N and the TH together. In the.
46
Didn't have much in the way of Asian food or dessert places.
47
Asian food or dessert places.
48
Now here this word or I could choose to break up the sentence and add some emotion to it, Asian food or dessert places,
49
or I could link them together and I could say Asian food or dessert places.
50
If I link them together and I don't give any emotion to the sentence, or turns into er.
51
Asian food or dessert places, Asian food or dessert places.
52
So here, dessert, there's a glottal stop there for the t, dessert places, dessert places back then.
53
I remember being really surprised.
54
I remember.
55
So here, I remember.
56
That first syllable in remember gets kind of reduced or blended with I.
57
I remember.
58
I remember.
59
I remember.
60
I remember being really surprised.
61
Really is the reduced form of really, and most people use really in connected speech.
62
I remember being really, really surprised when I...
63
Surprised when I...
64
Connect that D and the W there.
65
Surprised when I...
66
It sounds kind of funny to connect it with no words around it.
67
Really surprised when...
68
Surprised when I tried boba.
69
Tried boba.
70
In the same way, we're going to connect D and B here.
71
Tried boba.
72
Tried boba.
73
Tried boba for the first time.
74
For turns into for.
75
Tried boba for the first time.
76
Connect the T and the T there again.
77
First time.
78
I was like.
79
I was like.
80
So here was connects to I, and the vowel in was gets reduced.
81
It's much shorter.
82
I was like, I was like, I was like, do you eat these little pearls? Do you? Do you?
83
So here, d is the reduced form of do.
84
Do you eat becomes do you eat? Do you?
85
Do you eat?
86
Do you eat?
87
Do you eat these?
88
So we want to connect you and eat.
89
We do that with a little wha sound.
90
You, you eat, you eat these.
91
Then we take the tea in eat and turn that into a glottal stop.
92
Do you eat these little pearls?
93
Do you eat these little pearls?
94
Do you just only drink the tea?
95
Do you just, just, just, so just, the uh sound turns into something closer to I.
96
Just, just, do you just only drink the tea?
97
Also, the tea in just disappears in fast speech.
98
Do you just, do you just, do you just only drink the tea?
99
Only drink the tea?
100
What are you supposed to do?
101
What are you supposed to do?
102
So here, what are you turns into what are you?
103
What are you supposed to do?
104
Here, supposed, supposed drops that I from the first syllable.
105
Supposed becomes sposed.
106
What are you supposed to do?
107
Sposed.
108
Connect the D and the T here.
109
Supposed to.
110
And we reduce the vowel in two, but then we have the full vowel for do.
111
What are you supposed to do? To do.
112
What are you supposed to do?
113
In this video, I'll read the text twice.
114
First, with all the natural sound changes, but at a lower speed.
115
Then, at a normal speed with all the sound changes again.
116
Let me know in the comments which one you like.
117
Are you looking for a single course that explains all the connected speech rules, plus gives you thousands of sentences to practice with?
118
I've put together a full pronunciation course, focused exactly on how American English really sounds.
119
Believe me, this has been a huge amount of research on my end, and it's full of all the little details that they never tell you in textbooks.
120
All you have to do is follow along and let the repetition do the work.
121
I'll put the link in the description, but now let's get back to the video.
122
It seems crazy now, but I was already in college the first time I had boba.
123
I'd never heard of it at all when I was growing up.
124
The city I grew up in didn't have much in the way of Asian food or dessert places back then.
125
I remember being really surprised when I tried boba for the first time.
126
I was like, do you eat these little pearls?
127
Do you just only drink the tea?
128
What are you supposed to do?
129
It seems crazy now, but I was already in college the first time I had boba.

135
Do you just only drink the tea?
136
What are you supposed to do?
왜 이 비디오로 말하는 연습을 해야 할까요?
이 비디오에서는 식당에서 처음 시도한 음식에 대해 이야기하는 맥락에서 대화의 흐름을 배울 수 있습니다. 미국식 영어의 자연스러운 연결음을 익히는 것은 영어 회화 연습에 매우 중요합니다. 발음과 억양을 개선하여 더 유창하게 말하는 데 도움을 줄 수 있습니다. 특히, 이 비디오는 여러분이 사용하는 언어의 리듬과 음절 연결을 이해하는 데 유용한 자료가 될 것입니다.
문맥 속의 문법 및 표현
비디오에서는 여러 가지 중요한 문법 구조와 표현이 등장합니다.
- “It seems”: 이 표현은 의견이나 느낌을 전달할 때 자주 사용됩니다. 예를 들어, “It seems crazy”라는 표현은 어떤 것이 놀랍거나 이상하게 느껴질 때 유용합니다.
- “I'd never heard of it”: 과거의 경험을 회상할 때 유용한 구조입니다. 이 문장은 “나는 그것에 대해 전혀 들어본 적이 없다”는 뜻으로, 새로운 것을 경험했을 때의 맥락을 잘 전달합니다.
- “didn't have much in the way of”: 특정한 것이 부족함을 나타내는 표현입니다. “그 도시는 아시아 음식이나 디저트 가게가 많지 않았다”라는 의미입니다.
이러한 구조들은 IELTS 스피킹 시험에서도 자주 나타나는 문법입니다. 적절한 문맥 속에서 사용해보세요!
공통 발음 함정
비디오에서 발음시 주의해야 할 몇 가지 단어와 억양이 있습니다. 예를 들어:
- “it seems”: 이 표현에서 T가 발음되지 않고 약간의 글로탈 정지가 생깁니다. 연결형 발음을 통해 보다 자연스럽게 말할 수 있습니다.
- “I'd never”: D와 N이 연결되어 비슷한 소리로 변형됩니다. 이를 통해 부드럽고 유창한 발음을 연습해야 합니다.
- “in the way”: N과 TH 소리가 연결되어 다소 어렵게 느껴질 수 있습니다. 익숙해지기 위해 반복 연습이 필요합니다.
이러한 발음 연습은 영어 발음 교정에 매우 중요하며, shadow speak 기법을 통해 보다 나은 발음을 가능하게 합니다.
쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
