⚠️ Single-Syllable Vocal Energy & Vowel Articulation

The Trap: Single-syllable words like "prg" 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 "prg" carries the primary contrast or new information in a sentence.

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

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

⏱️ Stress-Timed Rhythm
