3.1 Word Groups - T followed by K sound

Instructions: None

3.1 Word Groups - T followed by K sound

Theory:

In natural spoken English, when some sounds come into contact with each other, their sound often changes. This is the case when one word ends in a vowel sound followed by a T, like GET, and the next word begins with a K sound, like COLD, the T sound becomes a K sound, and the T sound disappears.
