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

How Native Speakers Say It: Sustain vowel clarity without rushing into the trailing consonant. Elevate pitch slightly when "pab" carries the primary contrast or new information in a sentence.

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

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

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