True, Elision of the sounds /t/ and /d/ commonly occurs in sequences like /ft/, /st/, /ʃt/, /pt/, /kt/., in the phrase "trapped by", the sound /t/ is elided because it is in the /pt/ sequence., Elision most frequently removes the marker of past tense in verbs (e.g., in "-ed" endings)., The word "months" often loses its dental fricative /θ/ in everyday speech, becoming /mʌns/., The preposition "of" often loses its final /v/ before other consonants in rapid speech., The consonant /v/ in "give me" (/ɡɪv mi/) is usually elided in rapid speech, resulting in /ɡɪ mi/., The loss of the sound [h] happens in personal and possessive pronouns like he, his, her, as well as in forms of the auxiliary verb have., False, In the sequence "waste paper", the sound /t/ is usually fully pronounced in rapid speech., In the words "fifth" and "sixth", the consonants /f/ and /k/ preceding the /θ/ are always clearly pronounced., In the construction "going to", the form /ɡənə/ is used in all cases, including very careful speech., In the word "handbag", the /d/ is never elided.
