Can I omit the “t” in some words?

I've seen many people pronouncing words without the t, like fantasy, mentally and elementary, becoming like: fanəsee, menəlee,eləmenəree. But someone told me that it's not omitted, but glottalized, like the word “certain”, “button”, etc. Can someone tell me if it can be omitted or if it is glottalized as this person told me?

Dear natives, which show sounds decent to improve speaking? (For non-native speakers)

Dear natives, which show sounds decent to improve speaking? (For non-native speakers)

1) Simpsons 2) Adventure time 3) Family guy 4) Other recommendation from you 5) Friends It would be so much helpful for me if you answer Ps. Does people use ‘i’m on the level’ as ‘i’m being honest’ irl? I learned this phrase from Simpson and dared to use once to my american friend. And he asked me ‘what does that mean?‘. It made me feel embarrassed

How to say "I can't sleep because I am thinking about something all night long" in natural English?

Are there anything natural ways to describe it? My poor English doesn't allow me to sound like a human, which means that's beyond robotic and artificial. Native speakers please help me. Both casual and literal style are accepted. For example, this is something I could say: I can't sleep, rolling on my mattress til midnight because I have an important exam the next day. I know it's an akwardly embarrassing sentence but I don't know how to say it naturally.

What’s the British equivalent of “Friends”?

I want to improve my British English, so I’m looking for a british series with plenty of everyday language — kind of like “Friends”— with some slang and natural, casual speech. I don’t mind which part of England the accent is from, as long as it’s interesting. Oh, and maybe some recommendations for reality shows would help too!

Shouldn't it be "not good" instead of "no good"?
