All right, we have three areas to focus on today, so take a look.

First up, let's join Before - I. Sounds like this, Before I  ... Before I forget. forget, the /t/ sound at the end will disappear. Before I forget.

Next up, did + you, sounds like did you ... how did you? Great work.

Next, let's take three words and make one large chunk. fluent in English ... how did you become so fluent in English?

All right, let's do the whole thing.

• Before I forget, how did you become so fluent in English?
