The problem with linking words
Migrants want to hear every word spoken separately and clearly. But when Kiwis speak many seem to mumble or talk too fast. In this lesson you will learn about something called "word linking�. It sounds like words spoken together without any spaces between them. For example, what does "Si-tup� mean? Find out how Kiwis speak and why they speak that way. Then you will begin to understand what they are saying.
