Scenario 1) The /t/ is optionally silent when it follows /n/ and precedes a vowel sound, /r/ (including all r-controlled vowels) or a syllabic /l/.

1. center: /ˈsɛnt ɚ/

2. gentle: /ˈʤɛnt l/

3. advantage: /əd ˈvænt ɪʤ/

Scenario 2) In addition to the above instances of omitting the /t/, it is often omitted when it occurs between two consonant sounds (except the consonants specifically mentioned for /t̬/ and glottal stop). This is likely to occur when an -s ending is added to a word.

1. prints: /prɪnts/

2. acts: /ækts/

3. accepts: /ək ˈsɛpts/
