Hi Sovan! That is very common. The 'x' makes a /ks/ sound, so "next" is /nɛkst/. Don't worry if the 't' is very quiet when you speak fast. Just make sure to say the /s/ sound clearly! 🗣️
Is there a difference between "Then" and "After that"?
Good question! They mean exactly the same thing. We use different words so our story doesn't sound boring. If you say "Then... then... then...", it sounds repetitive. Mix them up! 📝
Teacher, how do I pronounce "Next"? It is hard to say 'x' and 't' together.
