You know, I like to take something difficult and make it very easy to understand
So while I was watching this video my 8 spoken contractions in English. I was thinking
Actually, I can teach much more in an easier way. So this is an update of that
There's much more information in this one and it's much easier to understand
Remember you can follow me on Instagram Twitter Facebook at Papa teach me also remember to click like and subscribe and hit
The bell to never miss a class again
So the first one we change is of and have to uh the schwa
Say it with me
Most of some of a lot of type of kind of anything of
You can change that of - just the sound say it with me to practice most of moster
some of summer a
lotta
Typer
Kinder
again faster moster summer a lotta
typer
kinder
If you didn't know to be out of something means you have no more of that
things finished done by by that thing, but the pronunciation
How do you pronounce that?
Outer no, we're out of doughnuts
What kind of movies do you like
kinda kinda
What kind of movies do you like?
Say it with me practice. What kind of movies do you like?
Do you pronounce that?
type of
typer
Eileen comedy-action that type of thing
Just so you know type of kind of they mean the same thing
Most important of all, we don't reduce to just a
When there's a vowel sound after for example
Most important of all sounds good
most important all
sounds ridiculous don't reduce to a
When there's a vowel sound after
Might have could have would have should have all the other modal verbs with have afterwards
So how do they sound for language geeks?
the have reduces to of a schwa with
Might've say with me could've
Would've should've
But also
You might hear the contraction even further to just the schwa
mighta
coulda
woulda shoulda
and
Again, all the other modal verbs would have also in negative same rules apply
so couldn't have can reduce to couldn't've say with me couldn't've or
Just a kid inter
couldn'ta
wouldn't a
shouldn'ta very common in fast spoken english
Not written English and definitely not formal slow clear. Speech
If you have a friend like this then you could say to them you should have gone to bed earlier you should have
Gone to bed earlier
even more contracted shoulda
You shoulda gone to bed earlier. You should have gone to bed earlier
What are the rules and exceptions
If you say I didn't have breakfast
Yes, this the verb have but you don't contract this one
You don't say I didn't have breakfast. You don't say that. No, why because
It's those situations like in modal's of deduction
For example you must have slept late. Yes, you can contract that
You must have slept late. You musta slept late. You must have slept late. That's fine
So in a conversation you're speaking quickly, how do you reduce this I would have
I'd have right if I had watched papa teach me I'd have learned a lot
That's fine, but we can reduce it even more
idath
We can reduce it further, Ida
Say it with me, Ida
So repeat with me if I watch papa teach me Ida learned a lot
These contractions these reductions are for spoken English
more specifically
quick
spoken English
casual conversations
Only if you're speaking slowly and clearly and carefully
You probably won't reduce these
Also if you're writing a test
Definitely not you will fail that test. These are not written at all. These are only spoken
remember that
Don't get me in trouble with your teacher
Another example a past conditional
Someone didn't go to the party, but you know if they had gone to the party
They would have liked it. So you can say to that person. Oh, you didn't go to the party
You'd have you'd have liked the party say with me you'd have liked the party
Contract it even more
Yuda Yuda like the party know you to love the party say with me yuda
Do you want to come to a party tonight submit night future perfect I will have gone to bed by then you want to say
before that
time
this will happen I
Will have gone to bed
I'll have could reduce - I
Love but in fast spoken speech we could pronounce this like ila
Midnight ila go on to bed by then again again only for spoken fast English
not slow careful speech
Definitely not written
Most of the time - gets reduced to
Language gigs this is for you
T & schwa, it's tough to say it with me. Tur now. I want to show you some exceptions
So I'm gonna show you a few different ones
Want to I want to go home say with me I want to go home
that's fine, but it's much more common to reduce this to I
Wanna I want to go home if you're watching this video in class
Look at your teacher in the face in the eye and say to your teacher. I want to go home. I
Want to go where's your teacher sitting there? I want to go home. They want to go home
Going to yes, you can contract to going to and
Of course, you can contract to gonna it's much more common just to say gunner
Gunner I once worked with a teacher who said this you, you know, all this gunner and one up
I just I don't want to teach it in classes because it's American and it's just wrong
I mean, that's a legit question gonna wanna are they destroying English? Are they just American and we shouldn't use them
No, it's fine. You can say them and you should say them because they sound natural this and fine one very common mistake
Be going to that's a future tense. It's
Kind of like will so we said I future go home fine
however
You can also use I'm going to be going to as a present continuous tense
For example, I'm going right now to
school to work and
This is the mistake I see
I'm going to school that's fine because that's a present continuous tense, right but
You can only reduce going to to gonna if it's a future tense
So I'm gonna school no as a future tense. I'm gonna go
to school fine
But I'm gonna school
No, you don't contract the present continuous going to to gonna you don't do that
I've got two
We reduce this. Yes, but we don't often pronounce it like gotta
We often do that
American D thing
We say I've got a I've got to go in American English gara
See they also do the gara
British gotta
Australian
Gotta and of course or two, which means should you should go to the hospital?
Yet we can say otter you really ought to go to the doctor. So
notice that the two it's never stressed and
Also, this sound is never stressed. The schwa is a lazy sound you ought to go to the hospital
Have to and has two
Language nerds that's for you have to sounds like hafta have to say it with me after
You're tired you want to go home I have to leave after say with me after I have to leave
Sorry, I have to leave
has to
Hasta he has to leave I have to leave
he has to leave an
Example with this one. He has to finish some work say with me he has to I
have to I
have to
Make sure that syllable is not stressed
That one is the stressed one after
after
hasta hasta rhymes with pasta
In let me and give me very easy
Just remove the last sound of those two words. So let me becomes
Lemmy and give me
gimme repeat with me lemme
Let me tell you a story
Gimme
Give me a few minutes
Eight the short explanation is this
Ain't means be not so I am NOT you are not he/she. It is not or
Have not
Got it can mean either of those things, but it doesn't follow
Traditional grammar rules it doesn't change for the third person. For example
This is considered bad grammar. Keep that in mind, but you will hear it. So, how do you use it?
For example with peanuts I saw the movie anchored
You can say it that way, but again know that it's considered bad grammar
But in songs you'll hear it in TV and movies. You will hear it. So some people use it
Really because their style of speech involves a lot of bad grammar
But sometimes if you are well-spoken
You might use this to speak emphatically to put some
Strength to what you're saying. I
Ain't happy
So if you compare that to I'm not happy that
One sounds a bit stronger. There's a bit of style to it
That's the difference and of course for have not or have not got you could say
I ain't got any money
No, it means I have not got any money
But remember I said this doesn't follow grammar rules. It's more used with people who often
Speak with bad grammar so you can change this too
Ain't got no money. Yeah, it's not correct, but you will hear it
In it this is also not considered correct grammar
So if someone speaks with a style of bad grammar, they might say this
not in American English
They don't say it British English. Yes, American English. No, it means
Isn't it a tag question? For example?
Cole today
Isn't it?
That's the correct way of asking this question
However, you could in a bad english style say for Cole today in it
interesting fact in the north of England
northern English they would say
Int it southern London English my English
Coal today, isn't it bad English coal today innit?
Northern English called today inter I don't know where that voice came from
