⚠️ Intervocalic Tap / Flap [ɾ] in American English

The Trap: Pronouncing a hard, aspirated [tʰ] in casual conversation can sound overly formal in North America.

How Native Speakers Say It: In American English, a single "t" between vowels quickly taps against the alveolar ridge like a soft "d" ([ɾ]). In British English, maintain a crisp aspirated [tʰ].

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

In natural sentences, avoid over-stressing "etice" unless it conveys the core contrast or focal point of your message.
