Dear Josh, my name is Alexandre and I'm from Brazil. A few minutes ago, I finished the Linking playlist. I took notes of all content, every observation, each explanation. I'm grateful, so your approach and teaching methods made all the difference. I'm grateful for your dedication and goodwill. Best regards, Alexandre. PS: I'd like to send a contribution... do you use any platform?

Awesome! I was looking forward to videos that cover additional areas of phonology besides individual sounds. Linking is quite easy to practice but very difficult to use in natural unrehearsed speech. Btw, 13:11 at thee (y)en duh vuh word haha 😄 I did notice that some native speakers don’t do it regularly and I was surprised, I thought this was one of the few rules people stick to 😞

Yeah, so... Unfortunately, the full pronunciation of words are more common the more you enunciate or emphasize, and since I'm at least partially conscious that I'm talking to English learners while recording, I've noticed that I tend to enunciate a bit more than usual, so you'll hear me use it somewhat disproportionately compared to normal speech. It doesn't really matter. Both sound perfectly normal and natural, but I wanted to mention it because it might be easier for some learners to completely ignore the rule and always stick to the reduced version instead :)

Both are possible, but the most common way is probably the first one, and like one word: star-di-duh. In this case, the "d" at the end of "started" replaces the "t" in "to". This is a very special and specific linking rule that we'll see in a future lesson.
