An interesting thing many are ignorant on
-
I just received an english worksheet
words that end with s,k,t and if the next word starts with either a,e,i,o,u.THe words are supposed to be linked up.Many reporters actually read in this manner..
Example
I was in the shopping mall yesterday
many people would pronouce was then in but you are supposed to link up the words
After-linking it becomes, you are supposed to pronouce it quickly anyway
Wa-Sin
Serious! not joking
Example 2
She was aware of the accident
Was aware becomes
Wa-sa-ware -
