英语中的变音现象
我们都有过这样沮丧的经验
,
很容易听懂中国人说的英语,
但是同样的对话一到
英美人的嘴里,便觉得很难跟上,有时甚至是不
知所云。这主要是因为我们说
的英语通常单词一个一个的发,每个都很清晰,词与词之间
有明显的
pause,
但
是英美人的
口语会有很多音变,这些音变使得我们很熟悉的单词的发音变得陌
生,
< br>难懂,
给我们的听力造成了很大的困难,
因此了解并使用
各音变规则会帮助
我们
提高听力,使我们的发音更加地道。
音变主要有
连读、
< br>失音、
弱化、
浊化、
同化、
p>
重音、
缩读等形式。言归正题
,
以
下列出给听力造成很大障碍的五种音变现象及其读音规则,
以及最后一项关于英
语的节奏,希望能有所帮助!
一、
连读
连读有四种类型:
1
Consonant / Vowel
2 Consonant /
Consonant
3 Vowel / Vowel
4
T, D, S, or Z + Y
1
、
以辅音
结尾的单词
+
元音开头的单词:要连读
如:
Your eyes
1a(one a)
a bowl of rice.
My
name
is
LA (Los Angeles)
[e lei]
902-5050 [nai nou tu: fai
vou fai vou]
注意:
以辅音结尾
指的是音标中的最后一个
音是辅音,
而不是单词的结尾,
这
如同
u[ju:.]niversity
前面的定冠词必须用
a
一样。
另:以辅音结尾的单词
+ h
开头的
单词
h
不发音,人称代词:
he
、
him
、
her<
/p>
、
his
与前面的辅音连读。
Did he?
Does he?
Was
he?
Has he?
Is he?
Will he?
Would
he? Can he?
Wouldn't
you?(wooden chew?)
Shouldn't I?(shudn nai)
Won't he? (won knee?)
Didn't he?(didn knee?)
Hasn't he?(haz a knee?)
英语中的变音现象

Isn't it?
(is a nit?)
Doesn't it?(duza nit?)
Aren't I?(are nai?)
Won't you?(won chew?)
Don't you?(don chew?)

、辅音
+
辅音的连读
如果前面的单词结尾的清辅音,
后面单词开头是与之相对应的浊辅音,
或者相反,
只发后面的辅音
t-d
t
?
-d
?
s-z
?
-
?
p-b
f-v
k-g
si
t
down
I
don’
t
know
(发音再次的老师都不会发出
[t]
音)
I
jus
t
didn't
ge
t
the chance.
Bi
g
cake
Da
d
tol
d
me
Hu
ge
change
Goo
d
night
3
、元音
+
元音
当前面的单词以元音结尾,
< br>后面的单词以元音开头,
两个元音连读,
连读的方法
p>
是在中间加
w
或者加
j.
以
ou
结尾的元音后面一般加<
/p>
w
。
而以长元音
i:
结尾的后
面加
j
Go (w)away
who (w)is
so
(w)honest
do (w)I?
she (j)is
但发这两个音的时候不要太强太故作。不然的话还不如不发。
4
、
T, D, S, or Z +
Y
的连读:
当一个单词是以
t d s z
结尾
,后面的单词是以
y
(
j
)开头的话要连读:
4-1
t+y
连读成
/t
?
/
Wha
t’s y
our name?
Can’
t you do it?
I’ll le
t you know.
4-2
d+y
连读成
/
d
?
u:/
Did you see it
How did you like it?
Could you
tell?
4-3
s+y
连读
?
英语中的变音现象
Yes,you are
Bless you
Guess your age
4-4
z+y
< br>连读成
?
How’
s your family?
Who’
s your friend?
When’
s your birthday?
呵呵!
我第一次知道这一连读规则时,
兴奋不已,<
/p>
很容易的听懂了许多以前觉得
很难以理解的句子,
并且按照这种连读方式发音省力、轻松了许多。
二、
失音
由于失去爆破是失音的一种现象,摩擦音也会被失去,所以统称为失音。
注意:
爆破音并不是完全
失去,仍然形成阻碍,把气流堵在里面,但不爆破,
直接发出相邻的辅音。
Disappearing /T/
关于
/t/
失音问题:
T
he sound /t/ tends to be unstable in many words
and
phrases. Sometimes it's there.
Sometimes it isn't. There is a process
called elision which deletes /t/ when
it is preceded by a voiceless
consonant
and followed by any consonant except /h/. Here are
some
examples:
Christmas
last week
most people
act sensibly software
international
Disappearing /d/
we
saw
that
/t/
can
disappear
in
certain
circumstances.
The
same
is
true
of
/d/,
but
the
circumstances
are
slightly
different.
If
/d/
is
preceded
by a
voiced consonant /b d g v D z Z dZ m n N l/ and it
is followed by
a consonant other than
/h/, then it can be deleted (elided). Here are
some examples:
handbag old
man used to
Taken together,
the disappearance of /t/ and /d/ is called
alveolar
plosive
elision
