In the phrase "Next, please", which phonological feature is commonly observed?
Answer: There is separation between the words
Explanation
In careful speech, speakers often separate "Next" and "please" due to the pause/comma.
So instead of linking sounds (as in connected speech), there's a separation or slight pause, which contrasts with natural connected flow.
