Speakers from many languages fail to pronounce all stages consonant clusters.....combinations of two or more consonant clusters, at the ends of words. This section is important for everyone. Pay particular attention if your first language is Spanish, or any of the East Asian Languages.

SECTION I: CLUSTERS WITH "S" and "T" {Counter #.....}

L3/S1-A

ST clusters do add a soft, exploding "T" sound.

EAST, DENTIST, TEST, FAST, BOOST, COST

And try these others---some of which have a final "ED" pronounced as a "T" (see Lesson #1).

blessed, beast, cast, roast, crossed, most, lost, post, bust L3/S1-B

"TS" clusters are pronounced as one affricate sound. Listen closely to the tape for instructions.

SITS, HEATS, BETS, HATS, SUITS, PUTS, POTS

And these additional words not recorded on the tape:

get, lets, gates, bats, aristocrats, boats, boots

L3/S1-C

"STS" clusters begin with a simple "S" and the add the "TS" affricate you just practiced.

DENTISTS, TESTS, FASTS, BOOSTS, FEASTS, DUSTS, COSTS

And a few more:

beasts, casts, roasts, posts, busts, costs, molests

SECTION II : CLUSTERS WITH "S" and "K" {Counter #.........}

L3/S2- A

"SK' clusters add a softly exploding "K" to the simple "S."

ASK. TASK, DESK, MUSK, TUSK

Now try a few more.

L3/S2-B

The "KS" cluster is also pronounced as one affricative sound. Listen closely to the tape for instructions.

BREAKS, SEX, SOCKS, BACKS, CORKS, BOX, BLOCKS

Now here are a few more to practice. takes, rakes, mocks, peaks, beaks, pokes, dukes, trucks, lox

L3/S2-C

The "SKS" cluster begin with a simple "S" and then adds the "KS" affricate you just practiced.

ASKS, TASKS, DESKS, MUSKS, TUSKS

and now try a few more which aren't on the tape.

risks, bisques, basks, mosques

Now try these drill sentences containing words from the last six clusters.

- HE SITS AT THE DESK.

- HE EATS LOX AFTER LOADING THE TRUCKS.

Now a few more drills which aren't on the tape:
