We're going to talk about reducing sounds, cutting off sounds, and connecting sounds.

Chúng ta sẽ nói về giảm âm, bớt âm và nối âm

Then, at the end of this lesson, I have a challenge sentence for you that I want you

Sau đó, cuối bài học này, tôi sẽ có một câu thử thách dành cho bạn để bạn nói được nhanh nhất có thể

to be able to say as fast as you possibly can.

So, let's get started with the first tip.

Hãy bắt đầu với tip đầu tiên nhé

My first tip for speaking fast English is to use contractions.

Lời khuyên đầu tiên của tôi là sử dụng từ viết chung

What are contractions?

Từ viết chung là gì?

They're when you put two words together.

Đó là khi bạn đặt hai từ lại với nhau.

I'd like to go is I would like to go.

"I'd like to go" = "I would like to go"

He's busy.

"He's busy"

He is busy.

"He is busy"

What're you doing?

What are you doing?

up here to help your pronunciation.

để giúp bạn phát âm

But, this first tip is the most simple.

Nhưng, cách đầu tiên này là dễ nhất

We'll talk about some more difficult tips later.

Chúng ta sẽ nói về những cách khó hơn sau

And it's an easy way to speak quickly.

Và nó là một cách dễ dàng để nói nhanh hơn

I'd like to go.

I would like to go.

Do you see how we can speak quicker because we're cutting off all the sounds in the word

Bạn có thấy chúng ta có thể nói nhanh hơn bởi vì chúng ta đang cắt bỏ tất cả các âm trong từ

would except for that final D?

"would" ngoại trừ chữ D cuối cùng ?

I'd like to go.

Great.

Tuyệttttttttttttt

Let's go on to the second tip.

Hãy đến với cách thứ hai

My second tip for speaking fast English is to reduce these four common verbs.

Lời khuyên thứ hai của tôi để nói tiếng Anh nhanh là giảm bốn động từ phổ biến này.

Gonna, wanna, gotta, hafta.

gonna, wanna, gotta, hafta

I'm gonna study English means I'm going to study English.

I'm gonna study English = I'm going to study English.

That word to simply becomes a.

Từ đó đơn giản là trở thành "a"

I'm gonna study English.

I'm gonna study English.

Or you might say, "I wanna study English."

hoặc bạn nói "I wanna study English"

Here, we're changing want to to wanna.

Ở đây, chúng ta đang thay đổi "want to" thành "wanna"

Again, the word to changes to a.

Một lần nữa, từ đó chuyển thành "a"

I wanna study English.

"I wanna study English"

Or maybe you will say, "I gotta study English."

hoặc có thể bạn sẽ nói "I gotta study English"

Here we have a longer verb.

Ở đây chúng ta có một động từ dài hơn.

I have got to study English becomes I gotta.

"I have got to study English" trở thành

I gotta study English.

I gotta study English becomes

And then you might say, "I hafta study English."

Và sau đó bạn phải nói "I hafta study English"

Have to, here again, to changes to a.

"Have to", một lần nữa, chuyển nó thành một

I hafta study English.

Can you say these with me?

Hãy nói cùng tôi nào

I'm gonna study English.

I wanna study English.

I gotta study English.

I hafta study English.

Beautiful sentences, and it's so fast.

Câu từ đẹp đẽ và nhanh vô cùng

My third tip for speaking fast English is to reduce the word you when you're asking

a question.

We're going to talk about three common question words.

And unfortunately, the word you reduces in a different way for each question.

So, listen carefully, and let's check it out.

The first question word is what.

How can we reduce the question, "What are you doing?"

What are you doing?

We could reduce this to say, "Whatcha doin'?"

Whatcha, whatcha.

It sounds like a CH sound here.

Actually, we've cut out completely the word are, and the word you just becomes cha.

Whatcha doing?

You might notice, too, extra tip that the end of the word doing that G also gets cut

out.

Whatcha doin'?

Whatcha doin'?

So, I end that word with an N. Whatcha doin'?

Whatcha doin'?

Oh, I'm teaching in English lesson.

Oh, I'm studying English.

I'm going to sleep.

Whatcha doin'?

Whatcha doin'?

Whatcha.

Whatcha doin'?

Let's talk about the second WH question.

Whereya goin'?

Whereya goin'?

Do you notice the same thing happening here with that ing at the end?

Whereya goin'?

It ends with an N. What is happening with the word you?

Where ya, we just changed it to ya, ya, not you, but Y-A.

Whereya goin'?

And again, we cut out are.

Where are you going?

Whereya goin'?

Whereya goin'?

Whereya goin'?

What about if you wanted to ask a polite question?

Would you help me?

Maybe you need some help in the office.

You might ask this lovely question.

Would you help me?

But if you want to say it fast, you could say, Wouldja help me?

Wouldja help me?

Wouldja help me?

Instead of a ch sound, like we talked about before, whatcha doing, here, instead, we're

going to say ja.

Wouldja help me?

Can you say that with me?

Wouldja.

Wouldja help me?

Would you help me becomes would ja.

Wouldja help me?

Wouldja help me, please?

Tips number four, five, and six include cutting off sounds.

These are a little bit more tricky, so let's pay attention carefully.

Tip number four for speaking fast English is to cut off the T at the end of words.

Ooh, what about this sentence?

I go out every night.

I go out every night.

Do you hear I go out every night?

No.

Instead, your tongue is at the top of your mouth.

You're about to make the T sound, but no air goes through, so it's just stopped at the

top of your mouth.

I go ou’ every nigh’.

I go ou’ every nigh’.

If you would like to know some more common sentences and English that use this, we use

this all the time, but you can check out this video I made up here about how to pronounce

the most common sentences in English.

I go ou’ every nigh’.

Can you say that with me?

I go ou’ every nigh’.

Tip number five for fast English is to cut off the letter D at the end of words.

Let's check out this sample sentence.

I found a blue and white card.

I found a blue and white card.

I found a blue and white card.

Maybe you found a blue and white card on the street, and it was a birthday card that someone

just threw out their window.

I found a blue and white card.

I foun’.

The word ends in the letter N. I foun’ a blue an’white ... Here, the word and is

being reduced.

Just cut off that final D sound.

I foun’ a blue an’ white car’, car’.

This is a little bit different than the word car.

I drive a car, because your mouth is making the shape of that D sound, but it's not making

the vibrations happening.

You're not actually making a D sound, but your mouth is making that shape car’, car’.

My tongue is flat against the roof of my mouth to make the D, but it's not coming out car’,

car’.

Can you say that sentence with me?

I foun’ a blue an’ white car’.

I foun’ a blue an’ white car’.

I foun’ a blue an’ white car’.

My sixth tip for speaking fast English is quite advanced.

It is to cut off the first sounds with a few pronouns: him, his, her, and them.

Let's look at a couple of sample sentences.

I think he's right.

I think he's right.

I think he's right?

There's no H happening here.

I think ‘e, think ‘e.

Kind of sounds like you're saying thinky.

I think ‘e's right.

Do you notice too at the end of the word right there's no T sound?

I think ‘e's righ’.

I think ‘e's righ’.

I think ‘e is righ’.

We do this all the time.

Let's go on to another pronoun.

It's his turn.

It's her turn.

It's his turn.

It's her turn.

This one's a little bit weird, isn't it?

The H at the beginning of his and her is cut off.

We don't do this all the time, but it does happen often enough that you want to make

sure you could understand when native English speakers are using it, and also so that you

can use it yourself.

It's ‘er turn.

It's ‘er turn.

It's ‘is turn, ‘is turn.

it's ‘is turn.

It's ‘is turn.

We're not saying it's his turn, it's ‘is turn.

It's ‘is turn.

It's ‘er turn.

It's ‘er turn.

It's ‘er turn.

Great.

What about the word them?

I listened to 'em.

I listened to 'em.

I listen to 'em, 'em.

The word them has the TH cut out, and instead you're saying um, um.

I listen to 'em.

Maybe if someone asks about some music that you like, you might say, "Oh yeah, I listened

to 'em.

I listen to 'em, 'em.

I listen to 'em."

This is quite casual, and we use it a lot in daily conversation.

I listened to 'em.

Can you say that with me?

I listened to 'em, 'em.

So, we need to reduce some pronouns as we're speaking him, his, her, them.

My seventh tip for speaking fast English is specific to American English.

It is to change a T sound to a D sound.

You might've noticed that we've done a lot with Ts and Ds, cutting them off at the end

of words.

And here we're changing them for each other.

So when we say a word, like the word better, water, do you hear better, water?

No.

In American English, a T that's between two vowel sounds ... It doesn't always have to

be a vowel, but between two vowel sounds is going to change to a D, better, water.

Let's look at a sample sentence.

The sweater is better.

I like water.

Sweater, notice that T, it's between two vowels.

Is better, it's between two vowel sounds.

I like water, also between two vowels.

But, what if we take it up a notch?

These Ts in the next sample sentence are also between vowel sounds, but it's not so clear.

Put it in the desk.

Put it in the desk.

We have a lot of D sounds.

Put it in.

Put it in.

What's happening with that T at the end of the word put?

Well, it's a T between two vowels, even though there's two separate words.

Put it in.

And the word it is between two vowels, even though it's two separate words.

So, I know this can be a little bit tricky, but you're going to hear native speakers use

this all the time, so make sure you can do it, too.

Can you say it with me?

Put it in.

Put it in.

Put it in the desk.

Put it in the desk.

Put it in the desk.

Put it in the desk.

Do you see how that makes it much faster?

Because instead of spending the time to let the air come out of your mouth, your tongue

is just tapping the top of your mouth to make a D. Put it in.

Put it in, instead of put it in.

It makes it a lot faster.

Are you ready for a final challenge sentence?

It's going to combine so many of these seven tips, and it's going to challenge your mind

and your pronunciation muscles.

Our sentence is, I'm gonna to eat his food, and it'll taste great.

Phew, pretty fast.

Let's break it down.

I'm gonna.

I'm gonna.

Remember those reductions we talked about at the beginning of this lesson?

We have a contraction, I am, and then we're reducing going to to become gonna.

I'm gonna.

I'm gonna eat his, eat his.

Here, the final T is changing to a D. But, why is it changing to a D if the next word

doesn't start with a vowel?

Well do you remember that we need to cut off the H for the word his?

So instead, it sounds like a vowel, ‘is, eat ‘is.

So, let's change that T to a D and make sure that you cut off the H. Eat ‘is.

Can you say that with me?

Eat ‘is, eat ‘is food.

Foo’.

What happens to that final D?

We just cut it off, foo’, and we're cutting off the next D. It'll tastes great.

It'll.

What is happening with this contraction?

Well, when we say the contraction it will, we kind of add a little U sound before the

L. It kind of sounds like U-L-L, It'll.

So, here we have two vowel sounds, even though we don't see them, similar to before, eat

his.

So, here we have it'll.

It'll tas’e.

Here we're cutting off the T. Grea’, and we're cutting off the T again.

It'll tas’e grea’.

Can we go back and say this full challenge sentence together?

Let's give it a try.

I'm gonna eat his food, and it'll tastes great.

So much going on here.

Let's try to say it fast.

I'm gonna eat his food, and it'll taste great.

I'm gonna eat his food, and it'll taste great.

I'm gonna eat his food, and it'll taste great.

Phew.

Great.

I hope you can say this and by yourself.

Use those pronunciation muscles and challenge yourself.
