Aspect of connected speech: Elision & Linking Our group Đức Duy Lê Trang Phạm Đức Khánh Hiền Cẩm Tú Elision The nature of elision may be stated quite simply: certain circumstances sound disappear In other words, in certain circumstances, a phoneme may be realized as zero or have zero realization or be deleted Elision is typical of rapid, casual speech Some types of elision: • Vowel elision • Consonant elision 3.1 Vowel elision - Weak vowel /ə/ disappears before syllabic consonants /n/, l, r/ • Canal /knỉl/ • Correct [krekt] • Connect [knekt] - Weak vowel /ə/ disappear when following aspirated stops /p, k, t/ • Today [thdeɪ] • Potatoes [phteɪtəʊz] 3.2 Consonant elision The loss of middle stops in - STOP + STOP + FRICATIVE: • Acts [ỉkt°s] • Scripts [skrɪpt°s] - STOP + STOP + STOP: - FRICATIVE + STOP + FRICATIVE: • Looked back [lʊkt°bỉkt] • Desks[dɛsk°s] • Stopped killing [stɒpt°kɪlɪŋ] • Guests[gɛst°s] • Crisps[krɪsp°s] The loss of /t/ in final clusters /-ft/ and /-st/ when followed by a STAO/NASAL/ FRICATIVE: 01 02 03 Left door [lɛf dɔː] Last time[lɑːs taɪm] Left knee [lɛf niː] Last man [lɑːs mæn] Left shoe [lɛf ʃuː] Last song[lɑːs sɒŋ] The loss of /d/ in final clusters /-nd/ and /-md/ when followed by LENIS STOP/NASAL: Kind nurse [kaɪn nɜːs] Skimmed milk [skɪm mɪlk] Canned bacon [kæn ˈbeɪkən] Seemed good [siːm gʊd] The loss of final /v/ in OF + CONSONANT: • Lots of them [lɒtsɒðɛm] • Waste of money [weɪsɒmʌni] Exercise: Identify the feature of connected speech I hope to see him next year Tell me the truth and just say it Next year /neksjɪə(r)/ and just /ændʒʌst/ → Consonant elison → Consonant elision The baby loves mashed potatoes Let's try a different approach Mashted potatoes /mæʃpteɪtəʊ/ Different /dɪfrənt/ → Consonant elison → Vowel elison Definitio n LINKING (LIAISON) Liaison: a transition or link between sounds or words Liaison: a process whereby a word that ends in a vowel when pronounced in isolation acquires a final consonant when followed by a word beginning with a vowel LINKING (LIAISON) Linking r and intrusive r: Two cases of liaison Linking r: a link between words through the articulation of a normally unarticulated word-final /r/, which is articulated only when preceded by a vowel in the same word, and followed by an initial vowel in the next word Example: Mother = /mʌꝺә/ They’re here = /ꝺeә hɪә/ It’s far = /ɪts fa:/ Mother and father = / mʌꝺәr әn fa:ꝺә/ Here is your book = /ꝺeәr ɪs jә bʊk/ It’s far away = /ɪts fa:r әweɪ/ “Law and order is important.” Intrusive r - Using an r-sound when that sound does not occur in the spelling in the form of the letter ‘r’ - The linking of final consonant and initial vowel • not at all /ˈnɒt ət ˈɔːl/ • Law and Order /lɔːrəndˈɔːrdər/ Intrusiv e j a word In English, when ending in /i:/, /eɪ/, /aɪ/, /i/, /ɔɪ/ is followed by a word beginning with a vowel, there is a slight link /j/ Intrusive A similar case w is with linking /w/ the intrusive /w/ when a word ending in /uː/, /oʊ/, /aʊ/, /ʊ/ is followed by a word beginning with a vowel between two vowels • my eyes /maɪ′ɪəz/ • day and night /deɪjəndnaɪt/ • free on Saturday / friːjɔːn ˈsỉtərdeɪ/ • go in /ɡəwʊɪ/ • two other /tuːw ʌðəz/ • too old /tuːwoʊld/ • how are you /haʊwər ju:/ PRACTICE Exercise.1: Match the ones on the left with the ones on the right Linking /r/ a When that sound does not occur in the spelling in the form of the letter ‘r’ Intrusive /w/ b When a word ending in /i:/, /eɪ/, /aɪ/, /i/, /ɔɪ/ is followed by a word beginning with a vowel, there is a slight link /j/ between two vowels Intrusive /j/ c When a word ending in /uː/, /oʊ/, /aʊ/, /ʊ/ is followed by a word beginning with a vowel Intrusive /r/ d A link between words through the articulation of a normally unarticulated word-final /r/, which is articulated only when preceded by a vowel in the same word, and followed by an initial vowel in the next word Exercise: Listen and decide whether the underlined words are linked by /r/ or /w/ or /j/ sound My dog hurt its paw on some broken glass A /w/ B /r/ C /j/ There was a flaw in the argument D /r/ E /w/ C /j/ I saw a good film last night F /r/ G /w/ C /j/ Exercise: Listen and decide whether the underlined words are linked by /r/ or /w/ or /j/ sound They employ students A /r/ B /w/ C /j/ I will buy it tomorrow D /r/ E /w/ F /j/ He put his shoe on A /r/ B /w/ C /j/ Blue is my favourite color D /r/ E /w/ F /j/ Thank y u f listening r
