Yes, but I noticed that vowel length only makes sense in stressed syllables, so as long as you stress the second word in each example this feature can be neglected. Devoicing definitely varies from dialect to dialect, but... I can't "hear" all that difference. As soon as such cases happen in normal connected speech, the difference seems to disappear.

"Spend time" can only be used in verb + gerund constructions or with further adverbial phrases. It´s a rule (it may change in the future, but for the moment, it sounds very wrong to a native ear any other way). It is like a transitive verb that must always be followed by an object - We can´t say "I took." for example. You´d have to say "I took it". So the options are: 1) Spend time + gerund (I spent a week writing the essay) 2) Spend time + adverbial phrase (I spent a week in the Bahamas ; I spent a week there) but not 3) Spend time + infitive (I spent time to learn English) It´s simply wrong.

It should have been an enjoyable trip, however, when I returned home yesterday I found that my bag had been left in the hotel room. The number of my room number was RM110, which was in phase II. My bag is made of black leather and is a little smaller than that of a notebook computer. I can be reached via my cell phone number 977. Please let me know if you find it.

Then you use it correctly. That's why people who are learning English have to learn which verbs are irregular, and how to use them correctly. Best wishes, Clive
