Pronouncing the verb ‘to be’
In natural speech, is almost never gets its own syllable. It shrinks and joins the word before it:
🔊 The road is closed → the road's closed
🔊 Your hair is dirty → your hair's dirty
Unless the word before ends in S, CE, GE, or CH — then is stays separate:
🔊 Grass is green
🔊 The bridge is closed
💬 Say ‘the clock is broken’ fast. Can you hear the is disappear?
