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