would /wəd/and /əd/

[duiter]

Hi all,

I come across this sentence in the Internet

I am a little confused by this statement written by British native speaker


137. would /wəd/and /əd/. These weakforms are used by all native speakers of English but they may almost always be replaced by the strongform /wʊd/. Examples where their use would sound fairly markedly unnatural or deliberate would be expressions like It would be nice if it would stop raining /ɪt (w)əd bi `naɪs ɪf ɪt (w)əd ˈstɒp `ˏreɪnɪŋ/ or Thank you. I'd love one /`θӕŋk ju. aɪd `lʌv wʌn


Would you mind elaborating more and giving more examples ?

Thanks

There's little elaboration that would be useful in text, unless you have a specific question. The best thing to do would be to listen to some English sound files and videos, and get back to us if you still don't understand it.
