 sound practice in class- glottal stop

The glottal stop is a voiceless plosive consonant sound, made by stopping air in the throat (glottis) as it leaves the body. In English pronunciation, the glottal stop is frequently used as an allophone of /t/ in connected speech:

Glottal stop (sounds like the hiccups)

Pronunciation practice

The glottal stop is most often heard replacing a syllable-final /t/ before another consonant sound:

witness/button/football/ notebook/ wetsuit/ I can’t see./What time?/Eight thirty/ kitten/background
