Do you ever notice how you don't always
understand what English people are saying?

It's like the words
are kind of together?

Well, I'm going to tell you
a secret: You're right.

And I'm going to get to that in a second,
and I'm going to give you a visual so you

Notice E is relaxed, he's
not really trying hard.

When you're speaking your natural language
you don't want to try hard all the time.

So I actually use another one: "wanna",
which I'm not going to talk about today.

We're going to get to the board and take
a look at what I want to teach you.

It's how to sound like a native speaker, but
also how to understand a native speaker.

Because we do this blending or
relaxed speech quite regularly.

Well, relaxed speech happens
when a native speaker...

Speakers-sorry-change sounds or drop letters
or syllables when they are speaking fast for

Nobody wants to say: "Do you want
to go to the movie tonight?"

So we say: "Do you wanna
go to the movie?"

Well, we dropped the "t"-okay?-and
we combined "want" and "to".

We even change the "o" to an "a" to
make it easier, so: "You wanna go?"

For you, you're thinking: "Youwannago",
that's a new English word: "youwannago".

In "see ya" we change and we drop the ending
here, we put: "See", and "you" becomes "ya":

It sounds weird when I
even say it to myself.

It's because both of these things we say at
least 10, 20, 30 times a day, so we change

it, we make it relaxed to make
it comfortable like E. Okay?

Problem for you is you go to school or you're
reading a book and it says: "Do you want to",

"Did you ever", no one speaks like that but
you, so today we're going to change that.

So I'm going to teach you, as I said, how
to understand it when it's said to you, but

Warning: Please use the books
first or, you know, listen to...

We have other videos on
pronunciation, use those first.

You have to master the
base sounds first.

You have to be able to say: "Do you want to",
because what you don't understand is when

I say: "Do you want", when I change it to:
"Do you wanna", I almost say that "t", so

I have to have practice saying the
proper sound before I can drop it.

It's like you got to practice a
lot before you can play well.

So, once you've got that down and you start
using this, people will go: "Hey, man, where

Because I hear some accent
but I really can't tell.

Okay, anyway, so today what I want to
work on specifically is "do" and "did".

Because there are a few things we say, and
there are what I call sound patterns for the

relaxed speech that you can learn to
identify what people are saying to you.

So I'm going to come over here
and I want you to take a look.

"Do" or "Did", and here's
the relaxed version of it.

When we're done this we're going to have a little
practice session because with pronunciation

it's important you actually practice it, not
you take the lesson, you go: "Thanks, James,

So the first one we want to do is this
one: "Do you want to", easy enough.

When we actually say it, what happens
is there are two cases here.

In the first case: "do" or "d"
changes to a "ja", "ja" sound.

And it comes: "Jawanna", so this is gone,
the "d" is gone, we changed it to a "j".

And remember what we
talked about with "wanna"?

Now, sometimes we go a step even further,
we're so lazy we don't even say the "ja",

we just say: "Yawanna", and we go
to this: "Yawanna do something?

So, "wanna" is an important part, but listen
for "ja" or "ya", "ya", "ja" or "ya", same
