Linking in IELTS Listening

Correct the spelling mistakes on the next page.

Try to find what the spelling mistakes have in common and use that to check that you have corrected the right parts.

Check your answers with the suggested answers, then use those answers to check if you guessed the right thing in common between the mistakes.

Why are the wrong parts spelled that way?

What needs to be true about the two words for this to happen?

In groups, practise saying the words they are written with the spelling mistakes, correcting each other if the pronunciation is too close to the version with correct spelling.

Test each other on the words:

  • Choose one of the lines, say it either the way it is spelt or the way it is pronounced, and see if your partner can hear which way you are saying it
  • Say one of the lines with the sounds linked and see if your partner can say it back carefully without linking
  • Choose one of the lines, say it the way it is correctly spelt (without linking) and see if your partner can pronounce it back with the usual fast pronunciation (with linking)
  • Say one of the words with the normal fast pronunciation (with linking) and see if your partner can spell it
