Description

The usual greeting when we are introduced to somebody knew:


Nice to meet you


 

Explanations

Notice the two different pronunciations. In the first conversation they make an assimilation which transforms the sounds between MEET and YOU according to this assimilation rule:


T + Y = CH


so "meet you" sounds like "meechoo". But in the second conversation there is no assimilation, so they keep the T and Y sounds separate.
