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

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)

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