tonation question Dear Guys,

I have a simple (hopefully) question regarding tonation. I have these two words and I am wondering if they are prounanced tonally in the same way as by default they are different but in case of the first one the tone goes from 3rd to 2nd which makes it the same with the second one?

1.演武 and 2.延误

you should write 演武(they are both 3rd tone)

but you should read 演( 2nd tone)武( 3rd tone)

it occurs when two 3rd tone be together.

延(2nd)误(4th)：write and read in the same way

Is your question does a word like the 請 in 請你 sound different to a word like 晴天？

Does a second tone sound different to a tone that is being changed to a second tone?

The answer is no, they sound completely the same.

演武：the tone goes from 2nd to 3rd

延误：the tone goes from 2nd to 4th

Thank You all for the helpful suggestions. Maybe I wasn't precise in the way I put the question. So I am aware of the first part in both words. What my question is if the second part of these words are prounanunced in the same tone?
