What are glottal stops.
I don't know if she is the same nail person, but one of them pronounces 'nails' like 'niles.' Really gets on my wick since she says it over and over. Therefore, I can't listen to her for long. Instead of improving her presention skills, Ophelia is worstening them. I have a laundry list of reasons why I think this. She rattles on and with inanities at breakneck speed. Boring, to say the least. She offers nothing in the way of valuable information about the product. I'm sorry she has turned out so badly.
It seems to be the accepted way to speak now. In fact , it’s encouraged. Even the BBC continuity announcers are at it, I think it was channel 4 who had an array of announcers with badly spoken over exaggerated accents. The Queens English is out of fashion , we’re on a slippery slope.
Glottal stops are where you don't pronounce t mid-word. So glottal itself becomes glo'al. Potato becomes pota'o.
it sounds more "chummy" if you say "gonna" lol
It also grates on me hearing the way Julia pronounces other words....Dresses for example...she says druss sez - Not sure how to spell this silly pronunciation, but there's a pause in the middle of the word and end is over emphasised. She says uss instead of ess. I've heard her do this on quite a few occasions.
I've never yet found a shop that sells those caps with the brim on the back.
