In this American English pronunciation video, you're going to play a card game with me and

未来形

my family and we'll study real English conversation as it happens among real Americans.

We're playing with a double deck of cards here. That means we've combined two full decks

so there's going to be two of every kind of card. So my mom says: two ones, two twos,

So rather than saying: two one cards, two

two cards, she's just shortening it into: two ones, two twos, making the number a noun.

So she's making it plural because there's two of everything. Two ones. Adding a really

light Z sound at the end. Two ones. Two twos.

But there are no sixes and sevens and half of the eights.

Sixes and sevens and half of the eights. So here, again, we're using the number as

a noun. And we're making it plural. Sevens and eights.

For 'sevens', we add a light Z  sound. For 'eights' we add an S sound. And for 'sixes', we add a whole syllable.

The rules for how to pronounce a plural noun were laid out in a video that I made earlier.

Click here to see that video or you can also find the link in the description  below.

So here, we've just heard the numbers 210 and 360.

Notice that the words 'hundred and' were dropped.

You can say two hundred and ten or three hundred and sixty

but it's probably more common in spoken English to drop that and just say

So 15, how does that sound different from 250?

There are two clues. First stress is on ‘teen’.

In the words that end in a zero, stress is on the first  syllable.

Clue number two, the T in ‘teen’ is a true T because it starts a stressed syllable.

The T in ‘fifty’ might be a true T or it might be flapped: fifty, fifty.

It's dropped. Americans often drop the T in this word.

As we go around bidding here, if you want to bid  higher, then you do so.

If you don't want a bid higher and you  want to drop out, then you say: pass— pass—

Twenty. Again, David drops the T here: Twenty five.

Thirty. Thirty. Stress is on the first syllable

and it's a flap T so we know it's not ‘thirteen’.

Thirty. Thirty. The T is flapped here because

it comes after an R before a vowel. Thirty.

He's trying to make us think he doesn't have a good hand but that he's going to bid anyway.

He reduces the word ‘that's’ by  dropping the TH.

This is a reduction you will hear Americans do sometimes.

That's too cheap. That's too cheap. That's too cheap.

Notice the word ‘too’ is stressed and it sounds just like the number 2.

These are homophones. They sound exactly the same. Even though they're spelled differently.

Different from 14 where stress is on the second syllable with a true T. Forty. Forty.

Flap T because the T comes between an R and a vowel.

Should have is often reduced to ‘shoulda’ in natural American English conversation.

I should have passed before. Shoulda— shoulda— try that.

A quick flap of the tongue for the D: shoulda—

I should have passed before. Because I think….

Because I... Okay my dad is doing a weird reduction here.

First he's reducing ‘because’ to ‘cuz’ which is a very normal reduction.

But then he's also dropping the TH in ‘think’ which
