    The liaison system is works like this: when a word ends in a vowel,and the next word starts with a vowel,a consonant is needed to break them up,most of the time it's s or t,friends=amis/ami/(inbetween the ,,//" i'm writing how the words sound),but my friends=mes amis/mez ami/,he is=il est/il e/ but,is he?=est-il?/et il/,beaux/bo/ and vieux/viö/ change to bel/bel/ and vieil/viey/,but by far the worst is the ,,frankish-h",basicly,all h's in latin words disappered,but when the franks took over france,they brought new germanic words into the language that did have an h,germanic h in words like hache/ahsh/(related to spanish hacha) and that h even got attached to latin words like haut/o/,,hight",and so say les hôtes/lez ot/,,the hosts" but les hautes/le ot/ the hights and les haches/le ahsh/ the axes
