surface assimilation
Surface assimilation is a phonological process wherein a phoneme (sound) changes to become more similar, or identical, to a neighboring sound. This adjustment typically occurs at the place of articulation and is influenced by the adjacent sounds, making the pronunciation smoother or easier. It's often seen in casual or rapid speech in many languages.
