Listen again - can you fully hear the /d/?VoxpopsI'd like to visit Iceland.I'd like to visit South America.I'd like to visit Spain and Greece.I'd love to go to Egypt.TimWe make the sounds of English in different ways, using different parts of our mouths. There's a group of consonants called plosives, and if this sounds a bit like the word 'explosion', well, that's not a bad way of remembering it. Plosive sounds are made by suddenly releasing air that has been blocked by various parts of the mouth. The sound /d/ is one of these plosives. The others are /b/, /t/, /p/, /k/ and /g/. But in fluent, everyday speech, when one word ends in a plosive sound and the next begins in another consonant sound, we don’t always hear the release of the plosive sound. 'I'd like to', becomes 'Idliketuh'.

This is called 'an unreleased stop', or, if you want to get really technical, 'a stop with no audible release'.
