Assimilation with /j/ - Connected Speech

In this video, you will learn about assimilation with /j/. There are four cases where assimilation occurs with the sound /j/, they are /d/ /j/, /t/ /j/, /s/ /j/, and /z/ /j/. Assimilation is not vital to your own speech, but it is useful to know in order to help with your listening comprehension. 🎁 Get your free English Pronunciation Pack (free audios, stories, lessons and activities to get your started with English pronunciation!): 📃 Download your free British English Phonemic Chart: 🥳 Join Emma’s Pronunciation Hub (get everything you need to improve your English pronunciation inside my online membership: // OTHER USEFUL CONNECTED SPEECH VIDEOS Linking Vowels - Linking R/Intrusive R - // FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA 📱 Website: Instagram: Facebook: Twitter: // IMPORTANT Any links containing are affiliate links and I earn commission through these links. If any of my content is sponsored, I will place a notification in the video and description. I teach using just one of many accents in the world. Please only learn it if you like it and if you are interested in learning it. I do not believe there is one “correct” accent or manner of pronunciation and I fully encourage EFL/ESL learners to expose themselves to as many varieties of English around the world to become accustomed to the beautiful variations of this world language. I focus mostly on teaching “Modern RP” (I may just say “RP” in my older videos, but to clarify, I do specifically mean “Modern RP”), however, you will hear a lovely little Yorkshire twang to my accent from time to time too. Please LOVE and BE PROUD of your accent. After all, it is part of your identity and makes you unique. 💚 #connectedspeech #pronunciation #learnenglish
