Linking: word final /s, z, Iz/ + vowel sound

Saturday, March 16, 2019 by Eva Easton 15 Comments

Linking is a basic element of American English Pronunciation.
In a dictionary, words are given in isolation.
In natural speech, however, you don’t say words separately.
You connect words together. You link them.

In this lesson, we’re going to practice consonant sound plus vowel sound.


And now it’s your turn.
Here’s your audio pronunciation quiz.
Which phrase do you hear?
