How to improve English speaking skills- American English pronunciation: gotta, hafta, hasta

Just a note: ‘I got to’ and ‘I’ve got to’ are different. ‘I got to’ means I was allowed to or permitted to do something. ‘I’ve got to’ means I must or have to do something. In spoken English, we tend to reduce ‘I’ve’ to ‘I’ even though that is grammatically incorrect.
