LINKING CONSONANT TO CONSONANT

Linking same continuous consonants

Continuous consonants are types of sounds in which air flows continuously through a constricted area of the vocal tract. When pronouncing continuous consonants, the air is never completely blocked by any part of the vocal tract.

-To link from one continuous consonant into the same continuous consonant, the linked consonant sound is extended, or pronounced for a slightly longer amount of time than a normal, single sound. For example, /r/ is a continuous consonant. When /r/ is linked into another /r/, it's pronounced for more time than if it is linked to a different sound.

I found this video to make it clear. This is how we are supposed to pronounce a phrase when we have to link consonants. 



I hope you guys find it useful :)
