    I just can't say enough about this course!  It's so fantastic!

    I do have a couple of questions:

    It sounds to me that when one word ends with a vowel and the next word
    begins with a vowel that the first vowel in the next word is omitted?

    Example:  Sí ansin  sounds to me like  sheen shin

    Am I right about this or do I need my hearing checked??? LOL

    Also, it sounds like the lady speaker is pronouncing "An bhfuil"  as simply
    "bhfuil"  or perhaps she's just saying the two so quickly I'm not hearing
    the "An" in it.

    I do know that fluent speakers will drop words so I am wondering if
    this is one of those words??

    grma,

    Deb
