TASK 1
LISTENING FOR LIAISON

You should have played the soundfile of the song "Monsters" before you began this quiz.

Now listen again, with headphones. Focus on the gaps before words which begin with a vowel. Using the drop-down menu, choose which of the four linking patterns is used.

Here is one example before you begin: turn off

(There is liaison between the two words, because the word "off" begins with a vowel).

How do these two words link together? What is the linking pattern?

Choose from options 1-4.

1. turn◡ off  2.turn◡/w/◡ off  3. turn◡/j/ ◡ off 4. turn◡/r/◡ off

The answer is 1. because the word turn ends with a consonant.

Remember:

Answer 2 is when the first word ends with a vowel with rounded lips.

Examples: you are, go out, now it. 

Answer 3 is when the first word ends with a vowel with spread lips.

Examples: he is, I am, boy isn't, stay up

Answer 4 is when the first word ends with any of the following:

a) a schwa sound

b) a centring diphthong

c) a silent letter "r" in Received Pronunciation 

Examples: teacher is, here is, far away

In all cases, the second word begins with a vowel sound

 

 

Now complete the gaps in the whole song.

(It is possible to pause or move the play button.) 

Oh,

before they turn

off

all the

lights

I

won't read you your wrongs

or your rights 

The

time has gone 

I'll

tell you goodnight, close the door 

Tell

you I love you once more

The time has gone 

So

here

it

is

I'm

not your son, you're not my father,

We're

just two grown men saying goodbye.

No

need to forgive, no need to forget 

I

know your mistakes

and you know mine 

And

while you're sleeping, I'll try to make you proud 

So

daddy, won't you just close your

eyes? 

Don't

be

afraid, it's

my turn 

To

chase the monsters

 away

Oh,

well I'll read

a

story to you 

Only

difference⌣ is this one

is true 

The

time has gone I folded your clothes

on the chair 

I

hope you sleep well, don't be scared 

The

time has gone 

So

here

it

is.
