how to speak English fast but do you really need to speak English fast let me tell you something sometimes we think that native speakers speak fast and this is why they sound so natural in reality they don't speak fast they just connect all the words together and instead of splitting them up which sounds a little kind of slower they just put them all together as if one sentence is one big word they omit some syllables they add some new sounds and this is why they sound the way they sound and sometimes it's hard for us to understand them just because they don't split up words and we think that they're just speaking too fast in reality they're not today I'm gonna teach you this technique I'm gonna teach you how native speakers do it so you can do it to sound more native and so that you understand
the mechanics behind kind of faster speaking so you can understand native speakers for example you see a phrase what do you for example in a sentence what do you do but Americans would never say like this what do you do that's it what do you do what do you do what do you do so the speed the pace is kind of the same it's just connecting everything what do you do and if you don't know the way they do it you're like what was that another phrase I am going to do some shopping what Americans would say they would say I'm gonna do some shopping again not I'm going to I'm gonna do again they've connected something they actually very phrase is the little get some water do you want something and some Americans would even say I'm a just shopping this is like the very very contracted version of it so what Americans do they take those smaller words and they pronounce them in a way that is easier for them in daily speech for example article that is pronounced like tha what's the weather today so they don't say what's the weather today they say what's what they say what's the weather today so it's not because it's easier Oh what about the weather report you sometimes sounds like yeah do you want to go for a walk again do you want to go for a walk sounds as if you just started learning English do you want to go for walk sounds closer to being a native speaker and another thing that you might have noticed when we say what do so we have T at the end of the word what and we have D at the beginning of the word do we kind of invent a new sound here instead of saying what do you do we say what you do so there is a sound chip which appears in the middle again this is a way to make your speech smoother and this is what all native speakers do for example what you do for a living what you do for a living to make this even clearer for you I'm gonna read a sentence out loud the first time I read it I'm gonna read it as a student the second time I read it I would try to read it as a native speaker let's do it I am going to go out to Walmart do you need anything I'm gonna go out of Walmart do you need anything again I replaced I'm going to with I'm gonna go to Walmart and I've connected Walmart with do we have a word that ends with T and we have a word with that begins with T so I'm gonna go to Walmart do you need anything and there's this chick that appeared in the middle the next word a little confusing I know especially when you hear this first in a native speaker speech something they say something I don't know why this appears it's just the way the language evolves when people speak it but can you give me something this is sometimes when native speakers say which is correct don't be confused it's just the same as something Oh the next phrase let me give you something
the Americans would say let me give you something so they just omit the letter T and you get let me let me get you something let me give you something in American English if you have a letter T in the middle of a word sometimes you pronounce it as d Mallette sir letter letter because it's faster to get a smoother safety you don't say it city city city it's like DNR City bitte and it sounds a little British so in Great Britain they would say sell pizza in American English there's a bitter bitter let me give you some more examples bottle bottle butter butter computer computer I can't even say it with with the T computer computer computer daughter daughter 80 80 40 40 little little to settle 30 30 you see this tea converts D all the time as you notice it's even unnatural for me to say little 30 just because I'm so used to you know in certain D instead of tea this would come automatically automatically not automatically automatically to you guys when you practice this is first the way to speak faster second this is the way to speak more naturally and third this is an easier way to understand native speakers because you now know how the mechanics work let me know if this was useful for you guys the homework for you the task is write down in comments below what other words have T in the middle and you pronounce them with a D just what I told you 30 30 little little that kind of stuff you can google that but make sure you write something
