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

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

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