Follow along with these quick, common phrases:

Didn’t you go?  =  Didn’chuh’go?
I think that you should.   =
  I think tha’chuh’should.
I’ll let you take a chance  =
I’ll le’chuh’take a chance.

Rest your eyes =
 Res’cher’eyes.
It’s not your fault. =
It’s nah’cher’fault.
I hope that you're alright.  =
 I hope tha’cher’alright.
