Unit OneListening Course (1) Section One Tactics for Listening Training Focus: 1. Phonetics: Weak forms, link-ups and contractions 2. Note-taking Selecting Key Words Part I: Phonetics Some words are read in strong forms while some others are read in weak forms.

January— Jan. and— dollar— $ more than five thousand— 5,000 + You can develop your own system of symbols and signs as long as they are consistent and you can recognize them when you read back.
