This is my best friend Lynne &#8212;<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent6\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Thank you.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent7\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; and she hosted Thanksgiving this year. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent8\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">So, in this video you&#8217;re going to see a spread of <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent9\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">food like I&#8217;ve never seen before. And also, we&#8217;ll <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent10\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">study a little pronunciation along the way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent11\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">In this video, there are many different things about <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent12\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">American English pronunciation to notice. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent13\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I will point out three. They are all occurrences <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent14\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">of the phrase I have got to. This phrase <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent15\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">will never be pronounced with that much time because <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent16\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">there are words in here that are function words <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent17\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">that need to reduce and link. I will say this <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent18\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">phrase once, and I notice that I reduce it to <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent19\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I&#8217;ve gotta. [x2] My friend Lynne will say <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent20\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">this phrase twice. She reduces it to I gotta [x2]. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent21\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">When I say the phrase, I make I have a contraction: <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent22\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I&#8217;ve. Got and to reduce to gotta [x2]. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent23\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The T here pronounced as a flap T, or D, because it <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent24\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">comes between two vowels. I&#8217;ve gotta, I&#8217;ve gotta. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent25\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Lynne reduces it further, dropping the word have altogether. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent26\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I gotta [x3]. Make sure when you reduce that you link <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent27\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">everything so there are no gaps between the words. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent28\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">For example, I&#8217;ve got to say, or, I&#8217;ve got to see <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent29\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">that movie. We&#8217;ll stop and take a look at these <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent30\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">phrases when they happen in the video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent31\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">This year we had some great side dishes: collard <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent32\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">greens with bacon and maple, a wild rice and quinoa pilaf, <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent33\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">a green salad with beets and pine nuts, some bread, <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent34\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">which I made, a corn souffl\u00e9, and bacon-wrapped dates <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent35\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">as an appetizer. But the star of any Thanksgiving <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent36\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">meal is the bird: the turkey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent37\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; That&#8217;s a pretty bird, Beads.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent38\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Thank you! Ok. 160 \u2026<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent39\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Here we&#8217;re checking the temperature of the bird to <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent40\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">make sure it&#8217;s cooked.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent41\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; 170. Ok, it&#8217;s done. Yes! Oh my God!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent42\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Now she&#8217;ll make a gravy using turkey stock, and the <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent43\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">drippings from the pan that the turkey roasted in. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent44\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Now whisking the thickened roux. Then I&#8217;m going <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent45\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">to add my homemade turkey stock to make a gravy. Yum. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent46\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It&#8217;s a little chunky. Oh look at that! Look how <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent47\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s, it&#8217;s happening.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent48\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It&#8217;s becoming gravy. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent49\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It&#8217;s becoming gravy.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent50\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Oo, it&#8217;s delicious-looking.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent51\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I sh&#8212;you know what I should add? White wine.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent52\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Oh yeah!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent53\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; See I&#8217;m cutting off right now the, <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent54\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">the, what&#8217;s that? It&#8217;s the thigh and the &#8230; <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent55\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">what&#8217;s that called? Yeah.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent56\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Thigh and the what?<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent57\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; What&#8217;s this called? The leg. The leg and the thigh.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent58\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; What&#8217;s this called and the answer was leg? <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent59\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">You couldn&#8217;t remember the word leg??<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent60\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; You&#8217;re making me nervous with your camera! <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent61\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; She&#8217;s been cooking all day long.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent62\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I know, she has been cooking all day. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent63\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I gotta find the joint. Brian, help me.<br \/><\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent64\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">OK, did you hear that? I gotta find the joint. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent65\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Lynne reduced I have got to to I gotta [x2]. Listen again. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent66\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I gotta find the joint [x3]. Brian, help me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent67\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Next, Lynne carves the turkey, and we all <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent68\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">enjoy an amazing Thanksgiving meal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent69\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Pie is the traditional dessert at Thanksgiving. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent70\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; We had three pies this year. We had pumpkin, <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent71\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">which I just adore. We have pecan, which is not my <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent72\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">favorite, but I&#8217;ve got to say, this one was really good.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent73\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Did you notice? I just said I&#8217;ve gotta. [x2] <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent74\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I&#8217;ve gotta say. Listen again. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent75\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; But I&#8217;ve gotta say [x3] this one was really good. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent76\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">But I&#8217;ve gotta say, this one was really good. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent77\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">This was a good pecan pie. And then we have this apple,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent78\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">which is just gorgeous, isn&#8217;t it? Here, let me rotate <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent79\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">it so you can get the inside. Gorgeous, gorgeous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent80\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">After everyone&#8217;s eaten all the turkey and pie they <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent81\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">can possibly eat, there&#8217;s only one thing left to do <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent82\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">when you&#8217;ve hosted 16 people in a Brooklyn apartment.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent83\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Man, uh, I gotta clean my floor. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent84\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">reduces. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent85\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I gotta [x2], I gotta clean my floor. Listen again. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent86\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I gotta clean my floor [x3].<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent87\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; So, would you say that the dinner was successful? <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent88\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; I would say so. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent89\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Yeah. Tell me a little bit about the evening from <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent90\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">the Chef&#8217;s perspective. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent91\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; Well, it started out a little rough because the turkey <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent92\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">was not ready, which was frustrating. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent93\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It took longer than you thought. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent94\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It took longer than I thought. BUT, it was well worth <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent95\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">the wait because it was awesome. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent96\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It was!<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent97\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; And now I&#8217;m picking the carcass. But I think <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent98\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">everyone had fun. And everyone got along, which is good.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent99\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; That&#8217;s huge.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent100\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; There were a lot of people that didn&#8217;t know each other. <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent101\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">A lot of randoms. But, um, food was good, and <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent102\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">company was great, and everyone laughed, and ate, <\/span><span id=\"STtranscriptContent103\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and was merry, and grateful. <\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent104\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; That&#8217;s true. That&#8217;s what Thanksgiving&#8217;s all about.<\/span><br \/><span id=\"STtranscriptContent105\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">&gt;&gt; It&#8217;s all about being grateful and counting your blessings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span id=\"STtranscriptContent106\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">That&#8217;s it, and thanks so much for using Rachel&#8217;s English.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"video\"><\/a><strong>Video:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-1594-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/61.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/61.mp4\">https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/61.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cI gotta\u201d is a common reduction in conversational English. \u00a0You\u2019ll hear it many times in this real conversation video. \u00a0Study American culture as we make Thanksgiving dinner.
