Hello everybody. Finally I made it into the promised land, AKA New York, and the first thing that dawned on me was how fast and entangled people talk on the streets. As you all know English is not precisely the most patient language, specially when people are talking. It's packed with abbreviations and one of the most common ones is can't. I've been having problems trying to assimilate the difference between both (can-can't). The pronunciation is exactly the same to me and I've tried to get it based on the context but sometimes I just can't figure it out. Can any of you give me some pointers on how to recognize each properly? Thank you.
