How is "have" (or "has") commonly pronounced in FAST speech, in American English? Here are some pronunciations I am pretty sure about:
I have a girlfriend - /aɪ ɛv/, /aɪ hɛv/
I have seen it - /aɪ əv/, /aɪ hɛv/
Here are the pronunciations I am not sure about (I am considering the cases where the main stress is not on "have")
I haven't seen it for a while - /aɪ ɛvnt/, /aɪ hɛvnt/
I don't have a car - /ɛv/, /hɛv/
She hasn't seen it - /ɛznt/, /hɛznt/
I have to check it - /aɪ ɛftə/, /aɪ hɛftə/
He has to do it - /hi ɛstə/, /hi hɛstə/
All these when the main stress is not on "have", otherwise it'd be /hæv, hæz, etc/.
Can someone comment on this? Thanks.
