They are amazing. So let’s go. It’s called connected speech because these techniques help us connect words together so that when we’re speaking, it sounds like this ... and not like this ... So let’s have a look at the first technique. OK, when one word ends with a consonant sound and the next word begins with a vowel sound, we use a linking technique called consonant to vowel linking, and that really helps push the words together to make both words clearer and to make the speech more natural, more quick and more fluent. Now, we’re going to look at a few examples in a minute, but this is really powerful, especially for students who, because of their mother tongue, often miss the last consonant sound in a word, or don’t give any importance to the last consonant sound in a word, or actually add an extra sound after words that end in a consonant. So this technique is going to get rid of those bad habits. It’s going to help both words be pronounced more clearly and be easier to understand you when you use this technique. So this is how we do it. Let’s look at the example, an apple. An ends with a consonant sound, apple begins with a vowel sound. To help join those words together so that it doesn’t sound like an apple, but it sounds like an apple, what we do mentally is take the last consonant sound of the first word, in this case the N of an, and put it at the beginning of the next word. So in your mind, instead of saying an apple, you want to be thinking an apple. An apple. An apple. And if you do that subconsciously, you will link the words together better. You will give the importance to the consonant that it needs to pronounce those 2 words clearly, push them together, speak more quickly, fluently, and naturally. Let’s have a look at a few more examples of this. Big elephant becomes big elephant. Big elephant. Brown owl becomes brown owl, brown owl, brown owl. Come in becomes come in, come in. And expressions like not at all becomes not at all. Not at all. And doesn’t not at all sound much more natural than not at all with gaps between the words? We don’t want gaps between every word. We want to link everything together to sound fast and fluent. I went on a boat? No, I went on a boat. I went on a boat. I went on a boat. I went on a boat. So that’s what happens when one word ends with a consonant sound and the next word begins with a vowel sound. But what happens when one word ends with a consonant sound and the next word begins with a consonant sound? Let’s have a look. This is a really, really useful technique for speaking more quickly. Basically, when one word ends with a consonant sound and the next word begins with the same consonant sound like black and cat, black ends with the /k/ sound cat, cat begins with the /k/ sound.
