TEST YOURSELF! Practice Listening to Reduced English Speech
“Why can’t I understand local English speakers?” One reason could be that English speakers often reduce their pronunciation in conversation. This means they do not pronounce words how they are supposed to be pronounced. In this listening and speaking lesson, you will learn to understand (and use!) ten of the most commonly reduced words in English conversation. These include:him, his, he, her, them, your, our, and, to, and or. At the end of the lesson, I invite you to test your listening and write what I say in the comments. Can you understand 100% of what I say? Listen and tell me!

1. Is he your teacher?
2. He said he knew him.
3. Remember to call her.
4. Is that your sister or your mum?
5. I called them and told them to apply for the job.
6. Call the store and ask them when they opened.

In one of your videos you told us that you moved to Canada from Poland when you was a kid, didn’t you? And by now you know the language as a native speaker, being even a teacher of English. It’s so important environment and your age when your start learn a foreign language. I think I will always make mistakes because I use Russian every day but English just time to time.
