How Native Speakers Say It: Only give full vowel clarity to the primary stressed syllable. Relax all unstressed vowels into a neutral, low-energy schwa (⁄ə⁄).
Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow
When "willynilly" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "willynilly is" sounds like "willynilly-iz").
