  • Today you're transforming your spoken English

  • by setting the scene for the movie

  • Mission Impossible Fallout with me.

  • We can't get enough of Tom Cruise, can we?

  • He was in our first video in the series

  • Top Gun: Maverick as well.

  • When you study the scene,

  • the way we're going to in this video,

  • you'll be able to understand American movies and TV

  • effortlessly without subtitles.

  • The best part is,

  • not only do you get to learn and study with the video,

  • you get to train with the training section in this video,

  • so you can start to make all of these reductions

  • and so on a habit.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • We're going to be doing this all summer,

  • June through August.

  • Stick with me every Tuesday.

  • They're all great scenes,

  • and there's going to be so much to learn

  • that can transform the way you speak and understand English.

  • And as always, if you like this video

  • or you learn something,

  • please like and subscribe with notifications.

  • (whistling)

  • You're going to watch the clip,

  • then we're going to do a full

  • pronunciation analysis together.

  • This is going to help so much

  • with your listening comprehension

  • when it comes to watching english movies and TV.

  • But there's going to be a training section.

  • You're going to take what you've just learned

  • and practice repeating it,

  • doing a reduction, flapping a t,

  • just like you learned in the analysis.

  • Okay, here's the scene.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • She didn't say.

  • She did however, grant me the opportunity to bring you in

  • on the condition that I terminate this mission

  • and hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • Sir you can't do that.

  • Hunt.

  • No I know lane, and he has no intention of going back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • And now the analysis.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where, we have a little stress there

  • on our question word.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • I would say these two words have more of a scoop up

  • because the intonation is going up.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • This is not a yes, no question.

  • And yes, no questions tend to go up in pitch.

  • And other questions tend to go down.

  • But in this particular case,

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • He's making it go up.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did this Sloane get this information?

  • What about the word and?

  • Does he say and?

  • And where--

  • And where-

  • Definitely no D.

  • The word sounds kind of like 'in' doesn't it?

  • and where, and where, and where

  • and where did Sloane get this?

  • And where--

  • And where did you get this information?

  • Get this, a stop T here it's not released.

  • That would be get this, gets this,

  • but it's get this, get this, get this, get

  • stopping the air in my throat,

  • my tongue is actually in position for the th,

  • get this and then when I'm ready to release

  • my tongue is already there.

  • Get this--

  • And everything is very smooth isn't it?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • And where did Sloan get this information?

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • No skips in pitch, all smooth.

  • In-for-may-tion,

  • four syllable word with third syllable stress.

  • T-I-O-N ending here, is

  • S-H schwa and Shin Shin.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • This infer ending S links right into the I.

  • So it's almost as if this word is

  • 'sinformation', 'sinformation'.

  • That's what linking does 'sinformation'?

  • Sinformation?--

  • Sloane and be careful there,

  • that's O diphthong as in no followed by N.

  • O O, make sure you do round your lips a little bit for that. Oww.

  • If you don't make that rounding motion,

  • it probably won't sound right, Sloane.

  • And then the tongue lifts for the N.

  • But before that we really want the O diphthong

  • to not have any nasal quality.

  • 'Sloa' O.

  • We don't want that. The N comes separately.

  • The nasal consonant is totally separate from the diphthong.

  • 'Sloa', 'Sloa'.

  • It's just like this word, slow.

  • And then you say an N.

  • Slow, Slow, Sloane, Sloane.

  • Sloane--

  • Get this information?

  • She didn't say.

  • She didn't, didn't,

  • she didn't say.

  • Most of our stress on the word say,

  • his pitch is a little bit high here,

  • she didn't say, she didn't say.

  • They're in a tunnel,

  • he's trying to be very clearly understood.

  • She didn't say.

  • She didn't say.

  • She didn't say.

  • She didn't say.

  • It's a little bit higher than conversational pitch,

  • I would say, in conversation,

  • it would probably be more like, "She didn't say,

  • "she didn't say,"

  • but instead it's, "She didn't say."

  • She didn't say--

  • What's happening with our N apostrophe T contraction here?

  • She didn't say,--

  • She didn't say, she didn't say,

  • I'm hearing very quick D, I'm definitely hearing the N.

  • I think the T is dropped.

  • I'm hearing the N going right into the S.

  • She didn't say, 'didn s',

  • 'didn s', 'didn say',

  • no feeling of a stop there.

  • She didn't say.

  • She didn't say.

  • Now the whole time we're hearing this phrase,

  • we're seeing this guy.

  • He looks pretty guilty.

  • I think it might have been him.

  • She didn't say, she did, however--

  • She did, she did, she did however,

  • a little break before the word however,

  • and after the word however,

  • just separating it a little bit

  • from the rest of the sentence

  • making it its own little thought group.

  • She did, she did, she did, she did.

  • She did, --

  • Did more stress there,

  • the D is not released that would be did, did. D,d,d.

  • She did, she did.

  • Tongue goes into position for the D,

  • the vocal cords vibrate, but it's not released.

  • She did, She did, She did, however,

  • She did however,

  • she did however,

  • she did however--

  • However,

  • how-ever middle syllable stress there,

  • however,

  • However, --

  • grant me the opportunity

  • to bring you in on the condition

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • Then we have a pretty long thought group,

  • Grant me the opportunity to bring you in on the condition

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • Grant me the opportunity to bring you in on the condition

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • Grant me the opportunity to bring you in on the condition

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • Let's just look at the first part of this thought group.

  • Grant me the opportunity,

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • So he stresses me quite a bit.

  • Grant me,

  • Grant me, now here NT ending it was dropped earlier,

  • but here I'm hearing it as a stop.

  • Grant me, Grant, Grant, Grant me.

  • Grant me,--

  • Without a stop, it would sound like this,

  • "Gran me, Gran me."

  • I definitely don't hear that.

  • I definitely hear a little stop a little lift

  • to my ears that makes a T sound.

  • Native speakers here these little stops as

  • T's or P's or K's depending on the word.

  • Grant me, Grant me, grant me the opportunity.

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Me with the E vowel and then the word V with the E vowel.

  • Now the word 'The' can either be the with E

  • or it can be the with the schwa.

  • The rule is when the next word begins

  • with a vowel or diphthong,

  • this pronunciation is E.

  • However, I've noticed Americans don't

  • actually follow that rule all that much,

  • though he is here.

  • The opportunity.

  • Opportu--

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Grant me the opportunity.

  • Stress on the third syllable of this five syllable word,

  • opportunity, opportunity.

  • As you practice that word, practice it right now, and

  • really feel that middle syllable stress.

  • Tadadadada, like the whole word goes up to that

  • and then comes away from that.

  • Opportunity, opportunity.

  • Opportunity,

  • If you make that your focus doesn't let you

  • simplify the rest of the word.

  • Maybe you also notice the T pronunciations,

  • we have a true T here starting the stressed syllable.

  • Opportunity,

  • then we have a Flap T,

  • because it's not starting a stress syllable

  • and it comes between two vowel or diphthong sounds.

  • Opportunity, opportunity.

  • Opportunity--

  • to bring you in.

  • Opportunity to bring you in,

  • Uhuh. bring you in.

  • You and to unstressed, bring and in stressed

  • with that shape Ah.

  • Now how is the word to pronounced?

  • Lets listen to opportunity to bring.

  • Opportunity to bring,

  • opportunity to bring.

  • Opportunity to,

  • opportunity to.

  • It's a flap isn't it?

  • It's a flap in the schwa.

  • It's not to it's a 'da' 'da' 'da'.

  • Opportunity 'da'.

  • Try that word just linking on to the word before.

  • Opportunity 'da', opportunity 'da'.

  • Opportunity to,

  • Opportunity to bring you in.

  • The opportunity to bring you in,

  • the opportunity to bring you in,

  • Opportunity to bring you in on the condition--

  • Bring you in on the condition--

  • Our next stress syllable is 'di' condition.

  • T-I-O-N here, SH scwha N.

  • Condition, our stressed syllable has the I vowel,

  • and I wanna point out C-O-N, that's 'Kan'.

  • That first syllable has the schwa, and so we

  • don't need to feel like there's any vowel in it,

  • 'cause the end absorbs the schwa.

  • So it's just 'kan' 'kan' condition, condition.

  • Condition,

  • Bring you in on the condition.

  • Now I wanna talk a little bit about linking.

  • We have that JU diphthong,

  • and then we have the I as in sit vowel in in.

  • Now when we have a word that ends in this sound,

  • and the next word begins with a vowel or diphthong,

  • it can sound like we connect them

  • with the glide consonant W.

  • So I'm gonna cut it here,

  • with just the very end of this word linking into the word in

  • in on the condition and listen to how it sounds like.

  • It's 'win', 'win' on the condition

  • because of the linking, 'win' on the condition.

  • 'Win' on the condition, '

  • 'win' on the condition.

  • Do you hear that?

  • I love that about linking.

  • So smooth one sound right into the next.

  • No true definition often between words.

  • Bring you in on the condition.

  • That's when stress becomes so important.

  • When we have the stress that gives us our anchor

  • rather than all These words separations.

  • Bring you in on the condition.

  • Bring you in on the condition,

  • bring you in on the condition,

  • bring you in on the condition that I terminate this mission.

  • That I terminate, that I 'ter' stressed syllable there,

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • That I terminate this mission,

  • that I terminate this mission,

  • that I terminate this mission.

  • Pitch goes up, because he is not done

  • he's going to put a break here,

  • but his pitch going up shows

  • that he's going to continue his thought,

  • and because of that, the stressed syllable of 'mi',

  • rather than being up down is more like a down up mission.

  • Mission,

  • That and I unstressed, they link together with a Flap T,

  • that I, that I, that I.

  • That I,

  • terminate this mission.

  • That I terminate, this is a true T,

  • because just like in opportunity,

  • it's a T starting a stressed syllable.

  • 'Tunity,' terminate, terminate this.

  • Stop T at the end of terminate,

  • because the next word begins with a consonant.

  • Terminate this mission.

  • Terminate this mission,

  • terminate this mission.

  • Mission, mission.

  • Here the double S I-O-N,

  • is the SH sound schwa N.

  • Mission, Shin, Shin.

  • Mission,

  • And hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • Our stress here in,

  • hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • And hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • And hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • And hand over Solomon Lane personally.

  • Hand Sol and Lane, per are our most stressed syllables there.

  • The word and not fully pronounced.

  • How does he pronounce it?

  • Does it sound like in?

  • In hand,

  • Yeah, pretty much does doesn't it?

  • So it's not and but it's an 'in'.

  • Unstressed, said very quickly,

  • I would write that with a schwa n,

  • but I know it helps people to think of it

  • as being the word in said very fast. In,in,in,in. In hand over.

  • The D here, very light.

  • In hand over, hand over, links into the next word,

  • which begins with the O diphthong.

  • In hand over Solomon.

  • So we have three O's here,

  • but they have different pronunciations.

  • The first one is the ah as in father 'sahla',

  • then we have a schwa 'sahlamn'.

  • Then we have a schwa again,

  • but when the schwa is followed by n,

  • we don't really hear it, mn, mn, mn.

  • It's right from m into n min, min, min, min,

  • Solomon, Solomon.

  • Solomon,

  • Solomon Lane.

  • Solomon Lane,

  • personally.

  • Personally, now the vowel in that stress syllable

  • is the 'er' vowel,

  • which is like the r acting like a vowel per.

  • So don't try to make a vowel between p and r.

  • Puh, er, per per.

  • Just give that r the shape and length of the vowel

  • per, personally, person.

  • Here we have another schwa N, so it's not person, person,

  • It's Person, person, personally.

  • Personally.

  • Sir you can't do that.

  • Okay, now his next sentence is all sort of low in energy

  • a little bit quieter.

  • Sir you can't do that.

  • Sir you, sir you,

  • not much jaw drop there it's not sir it's Sir Sir quiet,

  • mysterious, intense.

  • Sir You can't do that.

  • Sir you can't do that,

  • sir you can't do that.

  • You, I don't hear that as you I hear that is ya.

  • Surya, Surya, do you hear that reduction?

  • Sir you--

  • can't do that.

  • Sir you can't do that.

  • I'm hearing this as a stop t certainly not released.

  • Can't do, but can't do, can't do, can't do that.

  • And then I do hear him actually releasing that t.

  • So he doesn't make it a stop, he releases it.

  • Do that, that, that.

  • Do that.

  • Hunt.

  • Hunt, hunt. Hunt.

  • Up down fully releases that clear true T.

  • Hunt, hunt.

  • Hunt,

  • No I know Lane.

  • He puts a pause after Lane breaking it up into

  • its own thought group over here.

  • What is the stress of these four words?

  • Let's listen to the melody.

  • No I know Lane,

  • Tadatada.

  • No I know Lane.

  • No, I know Lane.

  • No has stress.

  • (laughs) The other word no has stress

  • these two words sound the same don't they?

  • N consonant O diphthong,

  • even though they're two different words

  • and they're spelled differently,

  • they are homophones they sound the same.

  • No, no, I know.

  • No I know,

  • The I diphthong just links really smoothly into here.

  • No I.

  • When we link the O diphthong into a word that begins

  • with a vowel or diphthong it can feel like

  • you're going through a W Why?

  • Why? Instead of I.

  • No why, No, no, I know Lane.

  • No I know lane,

  • Actually, he makes a little tiny bit of a lift here.

  • No, I know Lane, no, I know Lane, no, I know Lane.

  • But you can definitely

  • I think it's close enough

  • it's linked enough that you can think of this W to help you

  • smooth that transition.

  • We don't want no I, no I, no I,

  • we don't want that kind of lift.

  • No I, no I, no I.

  • No I,

  • know Lane

  • and he has no intention of going back.

  • And he has no intention

  • and he has no intention of going back.

  • No and 'ten' have our most stress there.

  • And he has no intention of going back

  • and he has no intention of going back

  • and he has no intention of going back.

  • What about our first three words here, and, he, has.

  • How are those pronounced?

  • And he has,

  • All three of these words reduced,

  • and becomes an an,

  • he becomes 'i',

  • as becomes is, is,

  • in he has, in he has, in he has, in he has, in he has.

  • And he has,

  • You should be able to say that without

  • moving your lips or your jaw at all

  • your mouth should feel totally relaxed,

  • and he has, and he has, and he has, and he has.

  • It's flatter, doesn't have the energy that no or 'ten'.

  • And he has no, and he has no.

  • It's all really low and flat building up to and he has no,

  • that stressed syllable with the up-down shape.

  • And he has no, and he has no intention.

  • And he has no intention,

  • and he has no intention.

  • The T-I-O-N ending here

  • if you look it up in the dictionary,

  • it will say 'sh' schwa n Shin Shin.

  • But actually when the SH sound comes right after an N,

  • we put a T in it and so then instead of SH it becomes CH.

  • 'chun', 'chun', 'chun',

  • intention, intention. chchch.

  • So ch instead of sh because of that n before.

  • Intention, intention.

  • The T in ten is a true t

  • because it starts a stress syllable intention.

  • Intention,

  • of going back.

  • No intention of going,

  • of going back,

  • a little bit of an up down shape on those two syllables,

  • go and back.

  • The word of reduces of, of, of, of going, of going back.

  • Of going back,

  • When you hear just of going back,

  • it's really crazy how fast

  • and almost not there that word of is.

  • We reduce it, we make it so short

  • to give the good contrast between

  • unstressed and stressed syllables.

  • Of going back,

  • Of, of, of, of, of, of going back,

  • of going back.

  • It's crazy how different that is than going and back.

  • It's not of of going back,

  • It's 'ev' 'ev' 'ev' going back.

  • 'ev' going back.

  • When we reduce things like that,

  • I think it helps us to connect things more.

  • Of going back, of going back.

  • Of going back,

  • And he does release the K sound.

  • That's another stop consonant.

  • And sometimes we don't release it

  • at the end of a thought group.

  • But he does here.

  • Of going back.

  • Of going back,

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're, he's speaking with authority here

  • with more volume.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That has a little bit of up down shape,

  • but then I don't really hear the K sound at the end,

  • taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking him.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking, true T there in taking,

  • because it begins a stressed syllable.

  • That's why we're taking him.

  • The word him unstressed,

  • he could have dropped the H that is a common reduction,

  • but I do still hear a light H,

  • even though the word is unstressed.

  • That's why we're taking him.

  • That's why we're taking him.

  • That's why we're taking him.

  • You know what, I'm even going to give some stress

  • to that's and why,

  • that's why, Oh, sorry.

  • That's an we're, that's why we're take,

  • that's why we're taking him back.

  • By doing a little bit more of the length

  • and a little bit more of up down shape on every word there,

  • It really brings stress and authority to what he's saying.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • Okay, now Tom Cruise's character,

  • really does the same thing.

  • He stresses more words than normally

  • he puts in more gaps, breaks it into more thought groups,

  • so that he can stress the importance of what he's saying.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • Which means, which means both of those have shape

  • of stress.

  • Which means and then he puts a little

  • thought group in here breaking it up, which means.

  • It's not, which means, which, which, which, which means.

  • Where which would be unstressed, but it's which means.

  • Which means.

  • Which means,

  • which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • That's exactly, and a little feeling of a stop

  • of a break here, breaking up the thought group.

  • That's exactly,

  • and the stressed syllable here of exactly

  • has a scoop up rather than up down,

  • because his pitch is going up.

  • That's exactly.

  • That's exactly,

  • Let's talk about the word 'exactly'.

  • We have an unstressed syllable.

  • IH as in SIT, G,

  • then stressed syllable starts with z.

  • So g and z are the two sounds that we get

  • out of the letter X.

  • It's interesting,

  • the letter X makes two sounds

  • and there's even considered a syllable break between them.

  • 'Ig', 'Ig', 'Ig', exactly.

  • So then we have the AA as in BAT vowel, k, t,

  • and then an unstressed syllable 'Ly' exact,

  • Exactly.

  • Now, if we didn't have the Ly ending,

  • and I was just gonna say the word exact,

  • I would definitely 'kt', 'kt', make both of those sounds.

  • But when The T comes between two consonants like this,

  • it's very common to drop it,

  • and that's what he does.

  • 'Exac' 'ly'.

  • So no T sound at all.

  • Exactly, exactly, Let's listen to him do it.

  • Exactly,

  • Exactly, no T.

  • Exactly.

  • Exactly,

  • what he wants us to do.

  • What he wants,

  • what he wants.

  • We have a stop t.

  • What he, because the next word begins with a consonant,

  • he didn't drop it.

  • What he wants.

  • What he wants,

  • us to do.

  • Wants us to do,

  • wants

  • us to do.

  • A lot of stressed words here.

  • The word 'to' not stressed, does have a true T though,

  • True T and schwa, us to do.

  • So, if the sound before the letter T and the word to

  • is unvoiced like here,

  • S is an unvoiced sound S,

  • then the T will probably be a true T.

  • Us to do,

  • wants us to do.

  • Wants us to do,

  • So even in a phrase here where the character

  • is stressing every word putting in more brakes

  • to bring extra stress, even in that case,

  • probably not going to fully pronounce 'to'.

  • It's just such a common comfortable

  • reduction in American English.

  • It would sound a little strange, "Wants us to do."

  • It would just be a whole nother level of emphasis.

  • Wants us to do, still with the to reduction.

  • Wants us to do,

  • Okay let's listen to this whole conversation

  • one more time.

  • And where did Sloane get this information?

  • She didn't say.

  • She did, however, grant me the opportunity to bring you in

  • on the condition that I terminate this mission,

  • and hand over Solomon Lane Personally.

  • Sir you can't do that.

  • Hunt.

  • No, I know Lane, and he has no intention of going back.

  • That's why we're taking him back.

  • Which means that's exactly what he wants us to do.

  • Now for the fun part,

  • you'll look at the notes we took together,

  • and you'll hear a part of the conversation

  • on a loop three times.

  • Then there's a space for you to repeat.

  • For example, you'll hear this,

  • Maybe so sir,

  • Then you'll repeat it.

  • Maybe so sir.

  • Try to imitate everything about this exactly.

  • So when you see this,

  • then you'll repeat it.

  • Maybe so sir.

  • That's from Top Gun Maverick,

  • which was the first movie we studied in this summer series.

  • You'll also have the opportunity to listen and repeat

  • in slow motion.

  • This will be important for you if you're more of a beginner,

  • or if you're having a hard time focusing on

  • linking or the melody.

  • Maybe you'll want to do it both ways.

  • But the important thing is,

  • here is your opportunity to take what you learned,

  • and put it into your body and your own habits.

  • That's what's going to transform your speaking.

  • You might do well to work with

  • the audio section of this video every day for a week,

  • imitating the rhythm and the simplifications will get easier

  • each time you do it.

  • If you can't keep up with the native speaker,

  • do this slow motion imitation.

  • Okay, here's our audio training section.
