Cluster Reduction

This process occurs on words which feature consonant sounds that are grouped together. For instance, the words snake and snail both feature the consonant cluster sn. In a cluster reduction snake and snail are commonly misarticulated as nake and nail. The /s/ at the beginning of the word is deleted.
