The Trap: Single-syllable words like "crie" carry primary acoustic prominence in isolation, but can be swallowed in rapid connected speech.

Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

When followed by a vowel, insert a subtle glide (/w/ or /j/) to connect into the subsequent word without an abrupt glottal stop.

⏱️ Stress-Timed Rhythm
