You're the best expert on American English pronunciation I've ever met on video. I can tell you this because I was trained in English pronunciation, flow, rhythm and the like by a native speaker of English who sounded very smoothly, speaking very smoothly. He became my role model. And you have become a role model for many people as well. Thnks so much for your super remarkable work. Keep it up and God bless you in these troublesome tomes

Thanks Julie for this informative video. Personally, I have been using these reductions for a long time, but now I understand much better why is done and how is done. I always find your videos highly enlightening because there is always something new to learn about English. Thank you again, you’re the best instructor ever!!!

Hi Rafael - This is another great question! The explanation is a little too long for me to explain in a comment, so if you come to my next live group class (called Julie's Conversation Club), I could answer your question in real-time! Here's more info: courses.sandiegovoiceandaccent.com/courses/julies-conversation-club. Let me know if you have any questions - hope to see you there! :)

hello, can any one explain me whats going on with "the" in the example "will you meet us at the restaraunt"? Sounds like "... us at restaraunt", and its very usual when I don't hear "the" in American speech

@@vadimdev3926 In your example above, the word "uh" sounds like the word "a," not the word "the." The "th" part of "the" needs to be in the pronunciation - it just happens very quickly, and the tongue tip remains inside the mouth (it hits the back of the teeth).

Hi Q X - Thanks for your question :) I'm saying "too kum." The /k/ consonant is less aspirated in this phrase because it is at the beginning of an unstressed syllable. But I'm definitely pronouncing a /k/ consonant, not a /g/ :) Thanks again for asking!
