Listen Later

Take a good look at how you connect your speech. Do you do this at all, or is this something that usually goes right over your head? Face this concept head-on with everyday phrases like "you" and "your", and understand how and when we reduce and blend the sounds of these words with T endings. 
 
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.

T + U Sound Idiomatic Expressions

Bet you that  I'm confident about something
I'll bet you that they show up late. 

Lost your touch To lose proficiency with a skill
I see you haven't lost your touch with cooking!

That's what you get That's the consequence
That's what you get when you don't sleep early!
