Now you can know everything in the world sport, but the only way you're finding out that one is by giving it a shot.

world /wɜːld $ wɜːrld/
finding /ˈfaɪndɪŋ/
shot /ʃɒt $ ʃɑːt/
連詞發音
everything in /ˈevriθɪŋɪn/
finding out /ˈfaɪndɪŋaʊt/

後鼻音+元音連讀
前後鼻音發音的位置不一樣，不是時長的關係。後鼻音發音位置更靠後。發前鼻音/n/的時候，舌前部邊緣抵住上齒齦；發後鼻音/ŋ/時，舌根部抵住軟齶。
/ŋ/發音示範（動圖）：
