Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes
The Trap: Avoid pronouncing every vowel with full acoustic weight. Non-native speakers often over-enunciate unstressed vowels.

Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow
When "absentees" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "absentees is" sounds like "absentees-iz").
Maintain the stress-timed rhythm of English: compress unstressed syllables rapidly so the beat of "absentees" aligns naturally with adjacent words.
