Coud you please listen to the part of this recording. (starting from 11 second).
I hear "spent nearly a year you know". But I hear it in the way that "E" in "spent" sounds like "E" in Australian pronunciation of "bed" or in American pronunciation of "make" (one of two vowels in may). "T" is not pronounced (stop "T"). "You know" is pronounced in a very relaxed manner (a kind of "yeah-na"). I admit that the guy is trying to imitate his mother's posh English.
Thank you.
