In today’s episode, we'll explore why certain words sound different when spoken alone compared to when they are part of a sentence. For example, why the word ‘have’ sometimes sounds like ‘have’ but also often sounds like ‘ev’ in a sentence. This is something that makes English so difficult to understand when we hear it, especially when we hear it from native speakers.
