    I'm addicted to your videos. So didatic for me as an english learner! The first rule "n before p,b,m" remembered me a gramatical rule in portuguese that we learn when we are kids: "before P and B, we only put M" (we don't have M and M together within words, so it's only before P and B). It seems clear that both rules exist for the same reason: phonetic sounds. But in portuguese the graphemes are quite similar with the phonemes, what doesn't happen in english. Thank you for your videos, they are helpping me a lot.

    What’s about assimilation of s to sh before /j/?

  • @markgoestofrankfurt
    @markgoestofrankfurt Рік тому

    important to point out these are features of casual or informal rapid speech as spoken in the UK, esp. Estuary English SE England, and frowned upon as incorrect articulation for more controlled, careful, formal speech in more educated circles.

    • @BillieEnglish
      @BillieEnglish  Рік тому

      Yes, very true! Thank you for adding that. Unfortunately, some ways of pronunciation still carry a certain association and connotation for people. As someone who's lived in Manchester for a long time, I don't mind if you speak.like that though! 😉

    • @BillieEnglish
      @BillieEnglish  3 місяці тому

      Oh I am sorry to hear you have such a hard time with phonetics ... don't curse it, I'll be happy to help: so, the /n/ from 'an' doesn't change into another sound, but it most likely links up with the following word. You might find my other video on 'catenation' useful: ua-cam.com/video/sQ369n0yJag/v-deo.html

      It should occur naturally. However, when you learn English as a foreign language you may pronounce words without linking them in this way.

    • @BillieEnglish
      @BillieEnglish  Рік тому +1

      Yes, it is. It is a process that happens naturally if the speaker follows the rhythm and patterns of English as a stress-timed language. All features of connected speech (e.g. assimilation, elision, weak forms etc) exist because English is a stress-timed language and sometimes we need to speed up pronouncing words to keep the timing from one stress to the next the same. You can find out more about this in my video on 'sentence stress'.
