Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow
When "mammy" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "mammy is" sounds like "mammy-iz").
In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "mammy" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
