Common Pronunciation Traps & Learner Mistakes

⚠️ Intervocalic Tap / Flap [ɾ] in American English

The Trap: Pronouncing a hard, aspirated [tʰ] in casual conversation can sound overly formal in North America.

How Native Speakers Say It: In American English, a single "t" between vowels quickly taps against the alveolar ridge like a soft "d" ([ɾ]). In British English, maintain a crisp aspirated [tʰ].

⚠️ Past Tense "-ed": Voiced /d/ Ending

The Trap: Do not pronounce "-ed" as an extra syllable.

How Native Speakers Say It: Voice a clean /d/ consonant at the end of the root word smoothly.

Connected Speech & Natural Conversational Flow

🔗 Consonant-Vowel Linking (Liaison)
