Hello you wonderful people!
Do you ever feel like you understand English…
but when native speakers talk, it suddenly sounds too fast?

Here’s the good news:
they’re not speaking faster — they’re speaking differently.

In this new lesson, I explain:
* why English sounds so fast in real conversations
* what connected speech really is
* how words link, disappear, change, or add sounds
* and how this helps you understand English much more easily

If you’ve ever thought
“I understand English, but not when people actually speak” —
this one will really help.
