3 tips for sounding like a native speaker





This video explains three tips for sounding like a native speaker.

On the one hand the first tip shows that you can connect consonants to consonants, in other words when a word ends in a consonant and the next word begins with the same consonant, drop the first one. Another thing is when a word ends in a consonant and the next word begins in a vowel, blend the letters one into the next.

On the other hand another thing we see is squeeze some words. For example instead of "every", native speakers says "E-vry".

Finally, the last tip shows: squeeze letters. For example when we have "tr", together sounds like "chr" so we don't say: "country", we say "cun-chry".

The native speakers speak very quick and very mixed, and we have to practice and try to cut the words we hear into the actual separate words that they are.
