I have a problem telling if a sokuon is being used or not. Example: assari vs. asari, or kite vs. kitte. What’s a good way to 1) hear the difference 2) say the difference clearer
ありがとうございます！
To me, in spoken language it seems that the sokuon is a very brief awkward pause between two syllables. The only real way I know to study it is to just keep listening for it. If you have a textbook with audio or can acquire one, such as the audio for the newest Genki, that may help. This is especially helpful if you have the dialogue in front of you and you read it before you listen. I hope this helps.
