Hi, I read in American accent book that when a "t" is followed by an "r" sound, the "t" changes and becomes an almost "ch" sound.
"To create this sound correctly, say "ch" as in chain, but just make the tip of the tongue a bit more tense when it touches the gum ridge, and focus on creating a stop of air."
Is this true? For example when we have this phrase/command:
Try it again.
Is the "tr" pronounced as mentioned above? I would also like to know (if you are kind enough) to tell me which words should I stress more when I pronounce the phrase: "Try it again". Are both "try" and "again" stressed?
Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you.
