TRANSCRIPT:

Do you want to improve your listening skills of fast English so you can understand native English speakers in any context. Well, that's what you'll do today. Welcome back to JForrest English. My name is Jennifer and today you're going to test your listening skills. This is all fun lesson. Now let's get started. Here are your instructions for the entire lesson? I'm going to say a sentence and I'm going to say it at a fast-paced, the way I would speak to my friends or colleagues. I'm going to use phrasal verbs idioms and expressions and I'm going to use natural pronunciation and you're going to test your listening skills. I will say each sentence, three times write down exactly what you hear in the comments section. And then after I'll explain exactly what I said, the expression I use and the natural pronunciation changes. Okay, our first listening test. Did you get that one? I said, did you break it to him first? Let's talk about the pronunciation. Changes. Did you? We pronounce this as didja, didja, didja. So I combine those sounds together and I take you and I change it to ya. Did you did you did you break it to him? Notice the last two words, really sounded like one
word Tim. Tim, it almost sounded like Tim the name Tim and that's because we frequently get rid of the H on him and her at a natural pace. And we connect it to the word before. So it really sounds like em em and then you hear the from to Tim, Tim, did you break it to him? Now, what does this mean to break something?

To someone is an expression and we use this when you share news or information with someone but it's always negative. So maybe you applied for a promotion but you're not going to get the promotion so that's the negative news. Did you break it to them? That he's not getting the promotion. So did you share this negative news with him?

Him, did you break it to him? Our next listening, test. Remember to put what you hear in the comments, cut it out. Would you cut it out? Would you cut it out? Would you did you get that one? I said, cut it out, would you first? Let's talk about pronunciation. Did y'all the same thing is happening here with? Would you you becomes yah and I combine. Those sounds whoo.

Jia Jia Jia? Would you would you, would you cut it out? Would you now let's talk about cut it out. You'll notice, we have teased in between vowels in American English, when a t comes between vowels, we change that to a, a very soft deep because they get out, cut it out, and I pronounce all three as one. Cut it out, cut it out.

It out, cut it out, cut it out. Would you the expression to cut something out? Means to stop something that is annoying or frustrating or irritating or unwanted. So, let's say you're in a meeting for work. And in the background, your kids are going crazy. They're screaming, they're yelling, they're fighting. This is behavior. That is unwanted frustrating irritating.

Annoying and you want them to stop so you can say to your kids cut it out. Would y'all are next? Listening exercise? Right? What you hear in the comments.

You got to kick it up a notch.

You gotta kick it up a notch, you got to kick it up a notch. Did you get that one? I said you gotta kick it up a notch. First notice how I used gotta? This is a reduction. It's a combination of the words dot to and it's pronounced as one. Gotta you gotta you can also say you've gotta you

You have got to. But in American English, it's very common to just say you gotta you gotta, you got to is the same as you have to.
