Can vs. Can't | English Pronunciation Lesson

Even native English speakers sometimes need clarification when they talk to one another. This can especially happen when we say the verbs “can“ and “can't“. Native English speakers don't always clearly pronounce the negative [nt] sound at the end of “can't,“ and this can make it difficult for the listener to understand if the speaker spoke in the positive “can“ or the negative “can't.“ However, to hear the difference between “can“ and “can't“, one does not need to hear those consonant sounds.
