  2. The “tap” sound It happens with the unstressed /t/ and /d/, when they’re between vowel sounds. E.g. trader, traitor, administrator, quarter, bitter, better, quality, body, artist NOT: artistic, qualitative

  3. It also happens in sentences when linking the words: • One at a time • I’ll see you tomorrow • I said I’ll invite her • I want to go to a pub • I don’t know her • Should I put it in a bottle or in a jar? • gonna , wanna, gotta.

  4. If the next word is a “semi-vowel”, there may be a suppression of the sound! • E.g.: • “What did you do yesterday?” • *Not yet. • I want you here!

  5. Y • “y” (semi-vowel /j/ ) has something very particular in English after some consonant sounds: • I like you • He loves you! • I’ll call you up • She called you up, didn’t she? • I told you to watch out. • I won’t tell her what you did.

  6. Practice these sentences with a partner: • Last Saturday I downloaded a song from a great Australian singer. A- Thank you! I really needed this B- Yeah, I heard you saying you needed it. • Out of all artists you know, who would you like to spend a bit of time with?

  7. Practice: a) Is this your box of old books and magazines? b) I miss a girl in another country. c) This is the unit I got in New Jersey. d) We had a ball in our mate’s house yesterday. e) The program was about animals on a farm. f) He ran away last year and never wrote a letter or called his mom again. g) Yes, you can use his bedroom in case you need it.
