00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:14.799 what's the most stressed word 30 00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:16.240 there you go 31 00:01:16.240 --> 00:01:17.759 there you go 32 00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:19.200 there you go 33 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:20.799 there you go 34 00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:24.400 there you go the stress is all going up 35 00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:26.799 towards the peak the energy 36 00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.360 peaks out on the word go that has the o 37 00:01:29.360 --> 00:01:31.280 diphthong you will need some lip 38 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:32.560 rounding for that 39 00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:34.720 there you 40 00:01:34.720 --> 00:01:36.959 going up in pitch going up in energy in 41 00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:40.880 volume there you go and then the up down 42 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:43.040 shape on the stressed syllable 43 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:44.560 there you go 44 00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:46.000 there you go 45 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:47.439 there you go 46 00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:49.280 try to do that try to do it really 47 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:51.200 smoothly connected 48 00:01:51.200 --> 00:01:52.640 with that peak 49 00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:54.720 of stress on go 50 00:01:54.720 --> 00:01:56.240 you'll listen to it three times then 51 00:01:56.240 --> 00:01:58.240 there will be a little pause for you to 52 00:01:58.240 --> 00:01:59.360 try it 53 00:01:59.360 --> 00:02:00.880 there you go 54 00:02:00.880 --> 00:02:02.320 there you go 55 00:02:02.320 --> 00:02:05.719 there you go 56 00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:09.440 there you go 57 00:02:09.440 --> 00:02:10.720 enjoy 58 00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:14.720 enjoy enjoy second syllable stress 59 00:02:14.720 --> 00:02:16.160 enjoy 60 00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:17.599 enjoy 61 00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:18.800 enjoy 62 00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:20.639 enjoy 63 00:02:20.639 --> 00:02:22.879 so the context here this is rachel's 64 00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:26.239 last shift the end of her last shift she 65 00:02:26.239 --> 00:02:29.440 did get a job in the video that we 66 00:02:29.440 --> 00:02:32.080 studied last week this section of the 67 00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:33.919 episode she had just had an interview 68 00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:35.360 where she didn't feel like she did very 69 00:02:35.360 --> 00:02:38.400 well but she did get the job and so this 70 00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.639 is her last shift and she knows that she 71 00:02:40.639 --> 00:02:42.959 has a job to go on to 72 00:02:42.959 --> 00:02:44.400 enjoy 73 00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:45.840 enjoy 74 00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:47.290 enjoy 75 00:02:47.290 --> 00:02:50.319 [Applause] 76 00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:52.639 should i tell her i owed a tea no okay 77 00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.120 chandler didn't actually order coffee 78 00:02:55.120 --> 00:02:57.599 what is the stress of his question here 79 00:02:57.599 --> 00:02:59.280 should i tell her i owed a tea 80 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:00.959 should i tell her i owed a tea 81 00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:02.959 should i tell her i owed a t should i 82 00:03:02.959 --> 00:03:05.919 tell her the verb should i tell her i 83 00:03:05.919 --> 00:03:08.000 ordered t 84 00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:10.319 t and the pitch goes up it's a yes no 85 00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.720 question those are our two most stressed 86 00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:16.080 syllables there should i the word should 87 00:03:16.080 --> 00:03:17.680 i would say is i would write that with a 88 00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.400 schwa should should should i should i 89 00:03:20.400 --> 00:03:22.400 the d is a flap sound because it comes 90 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:24.239 between two vowels 91 00:03:24.239 --> 00:03:26.720 or diphthongs the l is silent here 92 00:03:26.720 --> 00:03:28.480 so it comes between the schwa and the i 93 00:03:28.480 --> 00:03:32.799 diphthong so it's just should i shoulda 94 00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:34.799 bouncing on the roof of the mouth should 95 00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:36.239 i tell her 96 00:03:36.239 --> 00:03:38.560 should i tell her should i tell her 97 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.879 should i tell her should i tell her tell 98 00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:42.959 begins with a true tea 99 00:03:42.959 --> 00:03:44.959 because that starts a stressed syllable 100 00:03:44.959 --> 00:03:46.959 that's always going to be a true t 101 00:03:46.959 --> 00:03:48.799 unless it's the tr cluster then it might 102 00:03:48.799 --> 00:03:50.319 be a ch sound 103 00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:52.799 teller 104 00:03:52.799 --> 00:03:56.799 we have a dropped h the er the schwa r 105 00:03:56.799 --> 00:03:59.200 ending just links on to the word before 106 00:03:59.200 --> 00:04:00.239 tell her 107 00:04:00.239 --> 00:04:01.360 tell her 108 00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:03.120 should i tell her 109 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:04.319 should i tell her 110 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:06.159 should i tell her should i tell her i 111 00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:07.040 had a t 112 00:04:07.040 --> 00:04:09.840 i ordered both a little flatter lower in 113 00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:11.840 pitch i ordered i ordered i ordered i 114 00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:15.040 ordered tea before the stressed word t 115 00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:17.919 and again that is a true t because the t 116 00:04:17.919 --> 00:04:20.160 there begins a stressed syllable 117 00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:22.479 i ordered i ordered i ordered these two 118 00:04:22.479 --> 00:04:25.680 words flatter and pitch simplified less 119 00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.400 clear i know the word order can be 120 00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:30.479 really tough i actually have a video 121 00:04:30.479 --> 00:04:32.080 that goes over how to pronounce that 122 00:04:32.080 --> 00:04:34.000 word when it's stressed 123 00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:36.160 you can check it out i'll put a link in 124 00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:37.919 the video description 125 00:04:37.919 --> 00:04:39.199 prior to t 126 00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:40.400 priority 127 00:04:40.400 --> 00:04:42.479 priority no no 128 00:04:42.479 --> 00:04:44.160 no no 129 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:46.320 quick up down shape 130 00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:47.360 no 131 00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:48.800 no 132 00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:49.839 no 133 00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:51.040 no 134 00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:53.279 no no 135 00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:56.880 um excuse me everyone excuse me 136 00:04:56.880 --> 00:04:58.800 everyone stress on 137 00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.039 skews notice 138 00:05:01.039 --> 00:05:04.320 the word is not excuse but it's skews 139 00:05:04.320 --> 00:05:06.800 she turns it into one syllable this is 140 00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:08.240 pretty common 141 00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:10.400 so the letter x here 142 00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:13.479 represents two sounds k and s 143 00:05:13.479 --> 00:05:16.560 excuse but it's not uncommon to drop the 144 00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:19.199 first vowel and drop the k and just say 145 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:21.279 skews skews 146 00:05:21.279 --> 00:05:22.839 s sound 147 00:05:22.839 --> 00:05:25.600 k you diphthong 148 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.880 z excuse excuse me and that's what she 149 00:05:28.880 --> 00:05:31.520 does here stress on that syllable excuse 150 00:05:31.520 --> 00:05:32.720 me 151 00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:34.400 everyone 152 00:05:34.400 --> 00:05:38.000 excuse me everyone excuse me everyone 153 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:41.360 excuse me everyone uh this is my last 154 00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:43.199 night working here 155 00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:44.400 uh 156 00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:47.360 okay after the word uh 157 00:05:47.360 --> 00:05:50.240 what is the stress of this thought group 158 00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:51.039 uh 159 00:05:51.039 --> 00:05:53.520 this is my last night working here 160 00:05:53.520 --> 00:05:56.880 uh this is my last night working here 161 00:05:56.880 --> 00:06:00.080 uh this is my last night working here 162 00:06:00.080 --> 00:06:01.919 this is my last night 163 00:06:01.919 --> 00:06:04.479 this is my this is my these first three 164 00:06:04.479 --> 00:06:06.960 words said pretty quickly this is my 165 00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:09.919 last then we have more stress there last 166 00:06:09.919 --> 00:06:11.039 night 167 00:06:11.039 --> 00:06:12.639 working here 168 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.279 this is my last night working here 169 00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:18.000 this is my last night working here 170 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.560 this is my last night working here 171 00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:24.639 so last and work have the most stress 172 00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:27.759 even so even though last is one of the 173 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.680 stressed words it does have a dropped 174 00:06:29.680 --> 00:06:31.600 sound there is no t 175 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:33.360 the reason is because it's part of an 176 00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:35.440 ending st cluster 177 00:06:35.440 --> 00:06:37.759 the next word begins with a consonant 178 00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:40.160 the t between two consonants like this 179 00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.160 even when they're in two different words 180 00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:45.039 is often dropped last night it's just 181 00:06:45.039 --> 00:06:48.800 the s sound into the n sound last night 182 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:50.479 and then we have a stop t at the end of 183 00:06:50.479 --> 00:06:52.639 night that's because the next word 184 00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:54.400 begins with the consonant and the sound 185 00:06:54.400 --> 00:06:57.360 before it was a vowel or diphthong in 186 00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.160 this case the i as in by diphthong so 187 00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:03.360 the sound before is a diphthong but the 188 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:05.199 letter before is an h 189 00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:06.639 which we would think of as being a 190 00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:08.560 consonant letter 191 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:10.880 but if the t was between two consonants 192 00:07:10.880 --> 00:07:13.280 we would drop it just like here we don't 193 00:07:13.280 --> 00:07:15.120 talk about letters the rules are all 194 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:18.720 about sounds so here the t is not 195 00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:21.120 between two consonants it's after the i 196 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:22.319 diphthong 197 00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:24.960 before a consonant that's why this t is 198 00:07:24.960 --> 00:07:27.840 a stop t if you're completely confused 199 00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:30.319 about the t pronunciations i do have a 200 00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:32.720 playlist that goes over 201 00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:34.319 all of the different ways that we 202 00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:37.840 pronounce teas and the rules around them 203 00:07:37.840 --> 00:07:39.520 this is my last night 204 00:07:39.520 --> 00:07:41.280 this is my last night 205 00:07:41.280 --> 00:07:44.000 this is my last night working here last 206 00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:45.759 night working here 207 00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:48.160 stress unstress 208 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:49.120 stress 209 00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:52.000 unstressed unstressed last night working 210 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:55.280 here so the ing ending and the word here 211 00:07:55.280 --> 00:07:57.280 flatter lower in pitch coming down in 212 00:07:57.280 --> 00:07:58.400 vocal energy 213 00:07:58.400 --> 00:07:59.599 the word 214 00:07:59.599 --> 00:08:02.400 work this is a really tough word 215 00:08:02.400 --> 00:08:05.520 don't try to make a vowel it's the r 216 00:08:05.520 --> 00:08:09.360 vowel consonant combination 217 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:13.120 this is how we do it in american english 218 00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.199 this vowel doesn't really have a sound 219 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:18.560 by itself it just blends with the r 220 00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:20.080 er 221 00:08:20.080 --> 00:08:20.960 work 222 00:08:20.960 --> 00:08:23.599 so no wuck 223 00:08:23.599 --> 00:08:26.240 no jaw drop we don't need much jaw drop 224 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:27.440 for the sound 225 00:08:27.440 --> 00:08:28.960 tip of the tongue pulls back and up a 226 00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:30.879 little bit we're 227 00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:32.080 working 228 00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:33.760 working here 229 00:08:33.760 --> 00:08:35.200 working here 230 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:36.559 working here 231 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.080 working here 232 00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:40.559 and uh and uh 233 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:42.800 okay it's not that common to hear the d 234 00:08:42.800 --> 00:08:44.880 in the word and but she does do it 235 00:08:44.880 --> 00:08:46.160 especially 236 00:08:46.160 --> 00:08:47.440 you'll hear people doing that when 237 00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:49.519 they're thinking of what to say next 238 00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:51.279 then they're more likely to fully 239 00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:54.720 pronounce and and uh the d-links right 240 00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:57.040 into the next sound which is the uh as 241 00:08:57.040 --> 00:09:00.320 in butter sound and uh 242 00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:02.000 and uh 243 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:03.600 and uh 244 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:06.640 and uh i just wanted to say that 245 00:09:06.640 --> 00:09:08.240 what's the stress of this next thought 246 00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:09.440 group 247 00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.679 i just wanted to say that 248 00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:14.000 i just wanted to say that 249 00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.080 i just wanted to say that 250 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:17.200 i 251 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:20.000 just wanted to say 252 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:21.600 that 253 00:09:21.600 --> 00:09:24.880 again st cluster followed by a consonant 254 00:09:24.880 --> 00:09:29.040 just like last night becomes last night 255 00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:32.880 just wanted becomes just wanted i just 256 00:09:32.880 --> 00:09:34.800 wanted to say that 257 00:09:34.800 --> 00:09:37.120 i just wanted to say that 258 00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.440 i just wanted to say that 259 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:41.519 i just wanted to say that 260 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.279 everything links together really 261 00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:44.640 smoothly 262 00:09:44.640 --> 00:09:47.920 we have three more t's here let's study 263 00:09:47.920 --> 00:09:50.640 them what happens with these t's 264 00:09:50.640 --> 00:09:52.880 i just wanted to say that 265 00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:55.200 i just wanted to say that 266 00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:57.440 i just wanted to say that 267 00:09:57.440 --> 00:09:59.040 wanted to say 268 00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:01.679 wanted to say this first t totally 269 00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:03.200 dropped that's pretty common in this 270 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.519 word because it comes after an n 271 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:08.959 lots of other people will do that 272 00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:12.078 so the e d ending here 273 00:10:12.078 --> 00:10:14.160 it's funny because we drop the t but it 274 00:10:14.160 --> 00:10:17.120 still follows the rules for coming after 275 00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:19.679 a t sound so the rules for e d ending is 276 00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:22.480 when it comes after t or d it's the e as 277 00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:25.440 in vowel and the d sound so even though 278 00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.000 the t is dropped that rule still holds 279 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:29.040 wanted 280 00:10:29.040 --> 00:10:30.958 wanted wanted 281 00:10:30.958 --> 00:10:34.559 and when the word before two t-o ends in 282 00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.720 a d it's common to just drop the t sound 283 00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:38.640 altogether and just put a schwa at the 284 00:10:38.640 --> 00:10:40.880 end 285 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:44.800 wanada 286 00:10:44.800 --> 00:10:47.200 wanada wanted to say 287 00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:48.880 wanted to say that 288 00:10:48.880 --> 00:10:51.360 i just wanted to say that i just wanted 289 00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:52.958 to say that 290 00:10:52.958 --> 00:10:54.880 just wanted to say that 291 00:10:54.880 --> 00:10:56.800 she does a true tea release here at the 292 00:10:56.800 --> 00:10:58.320 end of that 293 00:10:58.320 --> 00:11:00.320 it's also common to make that a stop t 294 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:01.519 when it comes to the end of a thought 295 00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:03.440 group like it does here but here she 296 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:04.880 makes it a true t 297 00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:09.519 so in i just wanted to say that we have 298 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:11.120 four t's 299 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:12.559 that are part of the official 300 00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.519 pronunciation of those words but only 301 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.800 one of them is pronounced as a true t 302 00:11:18.800 --> 00:11:20.480 the other three 303 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.399 are all dropped 304 00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:24.880 that's crazy i love english 305 00:11:24.880 --> 00:11:26.958 i just wanted to say that 306 00:11:26.958 --> 00:11:28.958 just wanted to say that 307 00:11:28.958 --> 00:11:30.800 just wanted to say that 308 00:11:30.800 --> 00:11:33.040 i made some really good friends here 309 00:11:33.040 --> 00:11:35.679 what's the stress of this phrase 310 00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:38.160 i made some really good friends here 311 00:11:38.160 --> 00:11:40.640 i made some really good friends here 312 00:11:40.640 --> 00:11:42.800 i made some really good friends here 313 00:11:42.800 --> 00:11:46.720 i made some really good friends here i 314 00:11:46.720 --> 00:11:50.399 hear made the verb i made some 315 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:52.000 really good 316 00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:53.839 friends now 317 00:11:53.839 --> 00:11:55.120 here 318 00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:57.600 so the general 319 00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.480 way that stress works is content words 320 00:12:00.480 --> 00:12:02.639 are usually stressed those are nouns 321 00:12:02.639 --> 00:12:05.200 verbs adjectives and adverbs but they're 322 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:07.519 not always stressed for example the word 323 00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:08.399 good 324 00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:10.639 is not stress compared to really really 325 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:11.440 good 326 00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:13.839 really has more stress 327 00:12:13.839 --> 00:12:16.958 i made some really good friends here 328 00:12:16.958 --> 00:12:19.440 i made some really good friends here 329 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:21.920 i made some really good friends here 330 00:12:21.920 --> 00:12:24.399 i made some really good friends here the 331 00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:25.839 word some 332 00:12:25.839 --> 00:12:27.360 if that was fully pronounced it would 333 00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:29.600 have the uh as in butter vowel if it was 334 00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:31.360 stressed it would have that up down 335 00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:32.639 shape some 336 00:12:32.639 --> 00:12:34.559 but i would actually write that with the 337 00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:37.679 schwa some some it's flattering pitch i 338 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:39.440 think the vowel is not full i think it's 339 00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.000 reduced made some really good friends 340 00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:43.040 here 341 00:12:43.040 --> 00:12:45.679 i made some really i made some really 342 00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:47.839 i made some really good friends here 343 00:12:47.839 --> 00:12:50.399 friends here friends here i noticed she 344 00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:52.000 is ending with her pitch going up a 345 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:54.240 little bit friends here 346 00:12:54.240 --> 00:12:55.760 that's to show that she's not done 347 00:12:55.760 --> 00:12:58.720 talking she has a little bit more to say 348 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:00.240 friends here 349 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:01.760 friends here 350 00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:03.360 friends here 351 00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:04.800 and 352 00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:07.120 and uh there she goes again thinking 353 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:08.880 about what to say fully pronouncing the 354 00:13:08.880 --> 00:13:11.839 word and linking the d into the next 355 00:13:11.839 --> 00:13:14.320 sound the thinking vowel the uh as in 356 00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:16.958 butter and uh 357 00:13:16.958 --> 00:13:18.720 and uh 358 00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:20.480 and uh 359 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:23.440 and uh it's just time to move on 360 00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:25.920 in this last thought group on this slide 361 00:13:25.920 --> 00:13:28.240 what is the stress 362 00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:30.399 it's just time to move on 363 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:32.559 it's just time to move on 364 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:34.639 it's just time to move on 365 00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:35.839 time 366 00:13:35.839 --> 00:13:38.078 on and part of the phrasal verb it's 367 00:13:38.078 --> 00:13:39.839 just time 368 00:13:39.839 --> 00:13:42.078 to move on now we have a lot of 369 00:13:42.078 --> 00:13:44.399 interesting reductions here first i'm 370 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:46.000 sure you can guess 371 00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:48.720 the t is dropped in just because it 372 00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:51.360 comes between two consonants just time 373 00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:53.360 the s going right into the next t 374 00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:56.720 there's no extra t and the t in time is 375 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:59.360 a true t because the t begins a stressed 376 00:13:59.360 --> 00:14:02.958 syllable what about the word it's it's 377 00:14:02.958 --> 00:14:04.880 how's that pronounced 378 00:14:04.880 --> 00:14:06.078 it's just time 379 00:14:06.078 --> 00:14:07.360 it's just time 380 00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:09.920 it's just time 381 00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:12.559 it's just time 382 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:14.720 the vowel is dropped that's not an 383 00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:16.399 uncommon pronunciation you will hear 384 00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:18.240 that it's 385 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:20.480 that's 386 00:14:20.480 --> 00:14:22.240 what's 387 00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:24.160 and let's 388 00:14:24.160 --> 00:14:26.720 can all do this i actually have a video 389 00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:28.880 that goes over those reductions i'll 390 00:14:28.880 --> 00:14:31.839 link to that in the video description 391 00:14:31.839 --> 00:14:33.040 it's just time 392 00:14:33.040 --> 00:14:34.320 it's just time 393 00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:36.480 it's just time to move on 394 00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:39.040 so it's just the ts sounds linked right 395 00:14:39.040 --> 00:14:41.760 into the next word it's just it's just 396 00:14:41.760 --> 00:14:43.120 it's just time 397 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:46.000 now the word two this word reduces 398 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.079 usually almost all the time the vowel 399 00:14:48.079 --> 00:14:50.240 will reduce to the schwa 400 00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:53.279 and the t changes so it can be a true t 401 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:54.959 but it can also be a flap t and it's a 402 00:14:54.959 --> 00:14:57.600 flap t here that happens when the sound 403 00:14:57.600 --> 00:15:00.079 before was voiced not always you don't 404 00:15:00.079 --> 00:15:02.079 have to do it that way but you'll hear 405 00:15:02.079 --> 00:15:03.600 it that way a lot 406 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:06.480 time to timed timed so it's more like a 407 00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:09.680 d sound a flap sound in american english 408 00:15:09.680 --> 00:15:12.079 than a true t we don't have the true t 409 00:15:12.079 --> 00:15:14.240 release time to 410 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:15.600 it's just time to 411 00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:16.959 it's just time to 412 00:15:16.959 --> 00:15:18.880 it's just time to move on 413 00:15:18.880 --> 00:15:20.560 time to move on 414 00:15:20.560 --> 00:15:23.360 time to move on and then 415 00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:25.360 part of the phrasal verb move on the 416 00:15:25.360 --> 00:15:27.839 final word has some stress too time to 417 00:15:27.839 --> 00:15:29.199 move on 418 00:15:29.199 --> 00:15:30.959 it's time to move on 419 00:15:30.959 --> 00:15:32.720 it's time to move on 420 00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:35.680 it's time to move on 421 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.440 as of this moment 422 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:42.000 what's the stress of this thought group 423 00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:44.399 as of this moment 424 00:15:44.399 --> 00:15:46.880 as of this moment 425 00:15:46.880 --> 00:15:49.040 as of this moment 426 00:15:49.040 --> 00:15:51.199 definitely the most stressed word is the 427 00:15:51.199 --> 00:15:52.399 word this 428 00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:55.680 as of this moment 429 00:15:55.680 --> 00:15:57.600 mo is has a little bit of stress too 430 00:15:57.600 --> 00:15:59.759 it's the stress syllable of that word 431 00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:04.079 but this has the most stress as of this 432 00:16:04.079 --> 00:16:05.040 moment 433 00:16:05.040 --> 00:16:07.279 as of those two words linked together 434 00:16:07.279 --> 00:16:09.920 really smoothly with a z sound as of 435 00:16:09.920 --> 00:16:11.759 this moment 436 00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:14.160 as of this moment 437 00:16:14.160 --> 00:16:16.560 as of this moment 438 00:16:16.560 --> 00:16:18.560 as of this moment 439 00:16:18.560 --> 00:16:21.600 as of this moment and she does a true 440 00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:23.600 tea release here 441 00:16:23.600 --> 00:16:25.920 you won't always hear that but 442 00:16:25.920 --> 00:16:28.399 she's feeling energized she's 443 00:16:28.399 --> 00:16:30.639 excited about what's happening 444 00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.519 she's also speaking to a larger group so 445 00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:35.120 in those cases you might pronounce more 446 00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:36.560 of your teas than you would in 447 00:16:36.560 --> 00:16:38.639 conversational english 448 00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:41.120 as of this moment 449 00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:43.519 as of this moment 450 00:16:43.519 --> 00:16:45.600 as of this moment 451 00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:47.199 i will never 452 00:16:47.199 --> 00:16:49.360 have to make coffee 453 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:50.399 again 454 00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:52.320 and then she breaks up this next 455 00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:54.160 statement into a few thought groups with 456 00:16:54.160 --> 00:16:55.519 some pauses 457 00:16:55.519 --> 00:16:59.920 to bring extra emphasis i will never 458 00:16:59.920 --> 00:17:02.160 i will never 459 00:17:02.160 --> 00:17:04.160 really stressing that word going up in 460 00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:06.400 pitch because she's not done and then a 461 00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:08.000 break 462 00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:10.000 i will never 463 00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:12.000 i will never 464 00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:13.600 i will never 465 00:17:13.600 --> 00:17:15.760 have to make coffee 466 00:17:15.760 --> 00:17:16.880 again 467 00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:19.439 have to make coffee and again she goes 468 00:17:19.439 --> 00:17:21.039 up in pitch because she's not done 469 00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:23.359 talking and then the pitch at the end 470 00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:25.839 again goes down because that is the end 471 00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:28.400 of her statement so she broke that 472 00:17:28.400 --> 00:17:29.919 sentence up into 473 00:17:29.919 --> 00:17:32.400 three different thought groups to just 474 00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:36.320 bring extra stress to it i will never 475 00:17:36.320 --> 00:17:39.280 have to make coffee so by putting the 476 00:17:39.280 --> 00:17:41.440 break after the word the stress word 477 00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:43.840 never and the stress word coffee just 478 00:17:43.840 --> 00:17:46.720 brings more emphasis to those words 479 00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:48.880 have to make coffee 480 00:17:48.880 --> 00:17:50.400 again 481 00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:52.559 have to make coffee 482 00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:54.160 again 483 00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:56.240 have to make coffee 484 00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:57.440 again 485 00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:59.600 have to make and actually i'm noticing 486 00:17:59.600 --> 00:18:02.240 here she is not reducing the word to 487 00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:04.720 she's making that a true t and an ooh 488 00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:07.760 vowel which again we almost never do but 489 00:18:07.760 --> 00:18:09.919 she is bringing emphasis 490 00:18:09.919 --> 00:18:13.039 to each word in this phrase she is so 491 00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:15.200 excited to never have to serve coffee 492 00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:17.280 again that she did actually fully 493 00:18:17.280 --> 00:18:19.039 pronounce that word but it was still 494 00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:22.000 flat it was still unstressed low in 495 00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:25.039 pitch have to make coffee 496 00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:26.480 again 497 00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:28.640 have to make coffee 498 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:30.240 again 499 00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:32.400 have to make coffee 500 00:18:32.400 --> 00:18:33.919 again 501 00:18:33.919 --> 00:18:36.080 have to make coffee 502 00:18:36.080 --> 00:18:37.280 again 503 00:18:37.280 --> 00:18:39.600 the joke of this episode of course is 504 00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:42.080 that the very next scene is of her at 505 00:18:42.080 --> 00:18:44.720 her new job where she is being told that 506 00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:47.359 her boss likes coffee and that she needs 507 00:18:47.359 --> 00:18:49.359 to make it for him 508 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:51.679 let's listen to this whole conversation 509 00:18:51.679
