    1. The document discusses exercises on connected speech and phonological phenomena in the song "Glad You Came" by Boyce Avenue. 2. It asks students to identify reduced forms of words like functional words "the" and "a/an", and points out how words are linked together in chunks rather than in isolation. 3. It also asks students to notice assimilation and coalescence processes where the pronunciation of one sound is influenced by a neighboring sound, such as "and all that" being pronounced as "".

    Exercises on phonology – Connected speech

    1. Listen to the following song and identify the phonological phenomena related to connected speech:

    Glad You Came


    Boyce Avenue

    1 The sun goes down 25 Is here and now


    2 The stars come out 26 My universe will never be the same
    3 And all that counts 27 I'm glad you came (2x)
    4 Is here and now
    5 My universe 28 You cast a spell on me, spell on me
    6 Will never be the same 29 You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
    7 I'm glad you came 30 And I decided you look well on me, well on me
    31 So let's go somewhere no-one else can see,
    8 You cast a spell on me, spell on me 32 You and me
    9 You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
    10 And I decided you look well on me, well on me 33 Turn the lights out now
    11 So let's go somewhere no-one else can see, 34 Now I'll take you by the hand
    12 You and me 35 Hand you another drink
    36 Drink it if you can
    13 Turn the lights out now 37 Can you spend a little time,
    14 Now I'll take you by the hand 38 Time is slipping away
    15 Hand you another drink 39 Away from us so stay,
    16 Drink it if you can 40 Stay with me I can make,
    17 Can you spend a little time, 41 Make you glad you came
    18 Time is slipping away,
    19 Away from us so stay, 42 The sun goes down
    20 Stay with me I can make, 43 The stars come out
    21 Make you glad you came 44 And all that counts
    45 Is here and now
    22 The sun goes down 46 My universe
    23 The stars come out 47 Will never be the same
    24 And all that counts 48 I'm glad you came (several times)

    1. Notice the pronunciation of the articles the and a/an in the song. Are they fully pronounced? What other words have
    been reduced?

    2. Notice how words are spoken in English. They are not spoken isolatedly. They are uttered in chunks. Check the
    examples below. See if you can find any other ones and practice linking with them.
    1 The sun goes down
    8 You cast a spell on me
    17 Can you spend a little time,
    18 Time is slipping away,

    3. Notice what happened to the following words when they are together. Is this a phonological rule in English? What
    rule can you deduce from that?
    I. 3 And all that counts  / 
    13 Turn the lights out now  / 
