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

When "neuroscientific" is followed by a word starting with a vowel, glide the final consonant into the opening vowel (e.g. "neuroscientific is" sounds like "neuroscientific-iz").

⏱️ Stress-Timed Rhythm

Maintain the stress-timed rhythm of English: compress unstressed syllables rapidly so the beat of "neuroscientific" aligns naturally with adjacent words.

📐 Morphological Stress Rule (-ic)

Shifts primary stress to the syllable directly before "-ic".
