We can palatise don't you or what ya (as in What ya doing?), but it doesn't apply to liked your.
I was thinking that palatisation occurs in the first two since there's a voiced sound before the t unlike liked your.

1liked your can become like chur ( sounds like lecture but with the like vowel.) ? – Jim Aug 18 '22 at 20:11

2Voicing doesn't really matter. Palatalization can work on both vd and vl consonants. Any consonant from dental back to velar can palatalize, though the speed and context vary a lot. Most English palatalization produces CH or J sounds, occasionally SH with fricatives. Oh, and who says it doesn't apply to "liked your"? – John Lawler Aug 18 '22 at 21:40

Your question isn't specific enough as the answer depends on what accent of English you're speaking in. – Benjamin Harman Aug 18 '22 at 23:01

2@BenjaminHarman The question is perfectly specific enough as is because palatalization occurs in all English dialects, doncha know. – tchrist Aug 19 '22 at 04:31

I assume you're talking about yod-coalescence? That certainly does occur in liked your. – alphabet Sep 04 '23 at 00:59
