Linking your words in English




Have you ever wondered why native English speakers sound difficult to understand? Or why it is hard to make your English sound natural?


The answers to these questions is probably linking. Native speakers often link words together. e.g. She likesssstrawberry ice cream. They often do this because it is easier to say and it creates a smoother rhythm.


This website has some great examples. Click on the icon of the little man to hear the example. Try to repeat the sentence using the same linking.
