Pronunciation Polish
Today’s Sentence:Wake up and get out of bed right now.
David
▶︎ All right, everyone. It’s time to get up and do our “Pronunciation Polish.”
Here’s today’s phrase.
・Wake up and get out of bed right now.
・Wake up and get out of bed right now.
All right.
This is the kind of phrase that you’d say “in a hurry.”
So we have lots of words to join together.
First up, let’s start with “wake up and.”
It sounds like this.
wake up and
The /d/ sound in “and” will disappear.
wake up and
Next up, we have “get out of.”
We have a couole of flap /t/s here.
get out of, get out of
get out of bed
All right.
The /d/ sound in “bed” and the /t/ sound in right”
will disappear.
bed right now, bed right now
OK.
Let’s start to put it all together.
・Wake up and get out of bed right now.
OK.
Now we’ll try it at natural speed.
And remember the situation.
So change your intonation to match.
・Wake up and get out of bed right now.

All right.
Well, maybe you will use this,
or maybe you will hear this.
But it’s a good phrase to master.
Good job, today!
