Abstract
The current analytical study examined the phonological change that occurs when contracted verbs are produced and investigated how this shift affects the natural flow of speech. The International Phonetic Association (IPA) guidelines and Crystal's re-syllabification concept were used in the investigation. Re-syllabification, according to David Crystal (2008) in A Dictionary of Linguistics and Phonetics, is a reanalysis that modifies the locations of syllable boundaries. The research has been limited to informal contractions, particularly those that are popular among native English speakers. The findings of the study revealed that additional researchers need to investigate the morphological and phonological rules of the remaining list of Mathew Jones' Contraction in English on a larger scale. This equates to the conduction of experimental research to reveal new truths and horizons to learners and researchers who are interested in the topic.
