The Trap: Avoid pronouncing every vowel with full acoustic weight. Non-native speakers often over-enunciate unstressed vowels.

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