Consonant Death - Activity

This activity is based on Richard Cauldwell's presentation Listening decoding 02 Consonant Death - the case of 't' and uses his original video at https://youtu.be/j9w4txMxGTQ. The purpose here is to observe how sound shape of unstressed words changes in fast spontaneous speech, or in 'Jungle', according to R.Cauldwell.

Note how /t/ in words sheet, little bit, getting, matter is barely heard and sounds close to flap t in Jungle mode. Here it is marked with ' (apostrophe).
