I stand in front of many people,
my voice is clear, my hands don’t shake.
I trust myself and what I say,
I’m not afraid of a mistake.
What word am I?

I like to meet new people,
I enjoy parties and talking a lot.
I make friends easily everywhere I go,
I’m not shy at all — I’m what kind of person?

I always ask many questions,
I want to know how things work.
I like to learn new facts every day,
I’m interested in everything around me.
What word am I?

Sometimes I’m happy,
sometimes I’m sad,
and my feelings change quickly
without a clear reason.
What word am I?

I always tell other people what to do,
I like giving orders all the time.
I act like I am their leader,
even when I’m not in charge.
What word am I?

T-dropping

T стоит в конце слова + следующее слово начинается с согласного

bes(t) friend // nex(t) time

T стоит после глухой согласной и сам не ударный

Например, после s, f, x, p:

just → jus’

Но t НЕ исчезает, если:

• за ним идёт гласная (best idea — t слышно!)

• слово очень короткое и важно для смысла (not you, it is)

• мы хотим подчеркнуть слово (“I said just once!”)

“Next time the best team wins.”

“Last chance for the fast train.”

“Most people just smile.”

“First day, best day.”

“I left the last list at home.”

"I'm just kidding"

"we are best friends"
