The phenomenon of linking only occurs within the meaning group, even if two adjacent words between meaning groups meet the above two conditions, they are not linked.
I hope it will be warmer.

Extended data
(1) "consonant+vowel" continuous reading
In the same meaning group, if the first word in two adjacent words ends with a consonant and the last word begins with a vowel, the consonant and vowel should be read together.
(2) "r/re+vowel" continuous reading
If the first word ends with -r or -re and the last word begins with a vowel, then r or re should not only be pronounced as /r/, but also be combined with vowels.
(3) "Consonant+Semivowel" linking.
/j/ and /w/ in English phonetics are both semi-vowels. If the first word ends with a consonant and the last word begins with a semi-vowel, especially /j/, read it continuously at this time.
(4) "Vowel+Vowel" linking If the previous word ends with a vowel and the latter word begins with a vowel, these two sounds will often be linked together naturally.
(5) When a phrase or clause pauses according to the meaning group, even if there are two adjacent consonants and vowels between the meaning group and the meaning group, it cannot be read continuously.
