Progressive (out of word boundaries) Assimilation of "s" into "ʃ" in context.
Greetings!
Take a look at this sentence :
Well, supermarkets care. So much so that they....
a bit of context : Supermarkets care what their customers buy...
The transcription :
/weɫ/ su
əma:kɪts keə//səʊ mʌtʃ səʊ / ðət ðeɪ.../
If there is assimilation :
/weɫ/ su
əma:kɪts keə//səʊ mʌtʃ ʃəʊ / ðət ðeɪ.../
But it sounds as if it was saying "so much show" :
Well, supermarkets care. So much show that they....
Is it ok if there is assimilation??
