Exercise 2-2: Word Connections CD 2 Track 37
My name is... [my nay●miz]
because I've [b'k'zäiv]
pick up on the American intonation [pi●k? pän the(y)?mer'k? nin?t?nash?n]
In the preceding example, the word name ends in a consonant sound [m] (the e is silent and doesn't count), and is starts with a vowel sound [i], so naymiz just naturally flows together. In because I've, the [z] sound at the end of because and the [äi] sound of I blend together smoothly. When you say the last line [pi●k?pän the(y)?mer'k?nin?t?nash?n], you can feel each sound
pushing into the next.
