Pronunciation: Assimilation of /t/ followed by /k/

Tim's back in his pronunciation workshop. This time he's finding out about how the pronunciation of the letter 't' can change when it comes before a word starting with the sound /k/ - and hearing how some Londoners pronounce 'credit card'...

Can I have some examples of historical assimilation of the sound /t/ followed by /k/. Thank you in advance!

[EleDiosSar]

Hello, Thanks so much, i'd like to know, how do you pronounce in fluent speech a word that ends in k followed by d such as walked, please tell me
I should've walked away. thank you again

[hectoralfonsodepaz]

I like repeat this course is best course

[husseinabbooud]

From the best possible. But the example speakers should be less slow and not fast

[erayunlu]

hello, debit card" is it the same pronounciaation ?

[vanessaignaciodasilva]

I didn't get the short cut example because right before T there's R instead of a vowel, isn't the rule Just for vowel + t + k sound?
And another thing, for me, it seems like T sound isn't spelled at all, Just like "credit card", If you say these words together You're not going to pronounce crediK Kard, right? Just a unique K sound, like "credi Kard". Am I right?

[abdulwahab]

????In the examples I saw ... short cut ... I knew this word as a one word like "shortcut" right

[Kim-iqii]

In this case, the /t/ in 'credit card' is pronounced as a glottal stop.
(credit card [kʰɹ̠̥ʷedɪʔ‿kʰɑːd̚])

[PhuongPham-jfgg]

That's surpprised! But i can't recognise the ending sound has changed :v

[gertrudisramirez]

why does change the pronunciation i in idiot or identity or import or invent?

[woodies]

Haha! You really don't seem  to like that cake, from your face expression, Dan!
