Consonant sounds that link words.
When a word that ends in a vowel is followed by a word that begins with a vowel, English speakers will often insert an extra sound in order to link the vowels together to make the flow of speech more smooth and to avoid the ‘gap’ between the words (either a pause or unnecessary glottal stop).
