I'm sorry I haven't made any new podcast episodes for you for a while! I actually have three TQ (Ten Question) interviews that I've recorded, but haven't edited yet. I'm such a procrastinator! Do you know that word? It means that I put things off, I delay them. It's a terrible habit, but a very common one! Here's a casual language podcast from 2 1/2 years ago.

LnR 060 Didja call 'im?

"Did you call him" sounds like "Didja call 'im" if you are speaking quickly and informally. Never write "didja" and never write "im". I'm doing that here to show you how they are pronounced.

1. Didja (Did you) call 'im? Didja call 'em? Didja call 'er?

2. What's 'e doing? What's she doing? What are they doing?

3. Is that his or hers? It's his. It's hers.

4. They gave 'im the wrong number. They gave 'em the wrong number. They gave 'er the wrong number.

5. Is 'e the one? Isn't 'e your friend?

6. I see 'im. I see 'em. I see 'er.

7. What's his name? What's her name?

8. I got an email from 'im yesterday. I got an email from 'er yesterday.
