Listen "Reduced Forms (2)"
Episode Synopsis
This is the second of four podcast episodes about "reduced forms."
In the previous episode, we practiced saying verbs phrases such as "have to," "got to," and "ought to" by using the reduced vowel "the schwa."
In this episode, we add "gonna" (going to) and "ask 'em" (ask them) as we practice three full sentences.
Some keys for listening to and speaking fast English: the letters "h," "w," "t," "th," and "ve" are often not pronounced at all!
