1
Hey, what's up?
2
It's Alex.
3
Today I'd like to look at the connected sounds in a short text stimulating what somebody might say in a sales meeting.
4
Let's take a look.
5
I just wanted to let you know that the meeting went really well.
6
I just wanted to, just wanted to let you know.
7
So we take out the T in just.
8
I just wanted to, wanted to, we connect d and t here, wanted to let you know.
9
In front of you, a t or d sound turns into ch or j.
10
Let ch, let ch know.
11
Let ch know that the meeting went really well.
12
That turns into the, that the meeting went really well.
13
Went really, we have a glottal stop here for the t and went.
14
Went really well.
15
She said they're ready to commit to the deal.
16
Said there, said there.
17
Here the D and TH connect.
18
She said they're ready, they're ready.
19
The two R sounds connect too we don't say they're ready with a pause
20
or glottal stop in between them we just connect them they're
21
ready they're ready she said they're ready to commit to the deal to commit to
22
so here to both times two turns into to
23
and commit to the two t's connect commit to the deal we talked about in the email.
24
This is interesting here after about the T and the N kind of connect together.
25
Talked about in the email. About nn. About nn.
26
And the I in in, the I sound disappears.
27
Talked about in the email.
28
So about in the all connects together.
29
About nn the.
30
About nn the.
31
So about the lot will stop n-the, about n-the, about in the email.
32
It's going to be a two year contract, just like we were hoping for.
33
Contract just so j starts with a d sound, right?
34
Juh, juh, right?
35
It's a little bit of a d before the juh.
36
Just.
37
So that means the T connects to it.
38
Contract just, contract just, contract just like.
39
But now actually we take out the T in just.
40
Just like we were hoping for.
41
just like we were hoping for.
42
No T in just there.
43
Just like we were hoping for.
44
I already wrote up the contract.
45
I already.
46
I y'all.
47
Y'all.
48
We add a little bit of a ya between I and already.
49
I already wrote up the contract.
50
Rode up.
51
Rode up.
52
We make a tap there.
53
Rode up.
54
Rode up.
55
There's a tapped T between rote and up.
56
Rote up the contract with the new pricing.
57
Now, why don't we change anything with contract?
58
There's a regular T at the end.
59
Why don't we change?
60
Because kt stays like kt.
61
Contract with the, contract with the, but the two th sounds do connect together so contract doesn't change
62
but with the with the with the new pricing with the
63
new pricing it's a long voiceless with with with the new pricing
64
so once you take a look I'll send it over to them I'll I'll send it over to them.
65
Send it over.
66
It over.
67
There's a tapped T with it there.
68
I'll send it over to them.
69
So to, we could say a full to here.
70
That would be okay.
71
I'll send it over to them.
72
Send it over to them. To them. To them.
73
It's a little bit more informal and a little bit more relaxed to say to.
74
Over to them.
75
I just wanted to let you know that the meeting went really well.
76
She said they're ready to commit to the deal we talked about in the email.
77
It's going to be a two-year contract just like we were hoping for.
78
I already wrote up the contract with the new pricing, so once you take a look, I'll send it over to them.

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
