Pronunciation Polish

David
▶︎ All right, everyone. It’s time for today’s “Pronunciation Polish.”
Are you ready?
Here’s today’s phrase.
・I heard you rushed to help him after his accident.
・I heard you rushed to help him after his accident.

First, we have “heard” plus “you,” beomes
heard you, heard you

Next the /d/sound at the end of “rushed” will disappear
and link with “to.”
rushed to, rushed to

Next “him” and “his” has the /h/ sound, will disappear.
help him, help him
after his accident

That’s right.
We link “his” and “accident” as well.
after his accident

Lots of points today.
Let’s buid this sentence in chunks.
OK. Let’s start at the foot.
I heard you rushed to help him, I heard you rushed to help him
after his accident, after his accident

All right.
It’s a long one.
Here we go!
・I heard you rushed to help him after his accident.
・I heard you rushed to help him after his accident.

Don’t worry if it’s not perfect.
Even if you got just a couple, that’s great.
You’re doing well.

Ending

Onishi
▶︎ You know, the Tin Man was realistic ‘cause he was actually an actor in a costume, right?

David
▶︎ Oh, yeah, back then they didn’t have computer graphics or anything.
It’s just a guy in a suit.

Onishi
▶︎ Oh, yeah.
