This is all for speaker's convenience which causes such change in pronunciation

Let me tell you an interesting fact:

Only languages having devanagari lipi have the property that despite what the word is, the pronunciation of each letter remains the same. For e.g.

HINDI (Devanagari lipi)

Chal Chalna. CHAL has the same pronunciation in both the cases

ENGLISH (Roman script)

Put But UT doesn't have the same pronunciation

Another example can be what you told: should and shoulder
