Now for these, we have some very frequently used questions. What do you want to be? The question is should l say this clearly or can I blend and shorten the sounds. The key to this answer is who is speaking. This is a guidance counselor. So they’re not going to use the casual, fast blended sound. So when we practice today, instead of “Whatdoyou wanna be?”, let’s practice a nice, formal pronunciation “What do you want to be?” Okay?
Here we go.
What do you want to be?

Now, “have you ever” can be said clearly and distinctly but many people shorten these two =>have you ever. At first, we’ll speak slowly and clearly and gradually speed up as we go. Sounds good? Let’s try.

Have you ever tried multivitamins?

Okay, let’s try some “have you … before” chunks.
Have you met her before?
Have you eaten there before?
Have you tried multivitamins before?
Have you played golf before?
