Consonant to Vowel
句子中前一个单词的辅音和后一个单词的元音连读;特别地,t 读作 d。比如:
what's up->wuh tsupten hours a day->ten nau ər zə daywhat is it->wə di zitI'm on the train->ai mɔn the train
Consonant to Consonant
句子中前后两个单词的辅音构成连读,有以下几种情况:
- 前后两个辅音相同的时候,比如:
gas station->gæ s_s tation,some might->sə m_m ait。 t,d,p,b,k,g这六个称为stop consonant,不构成连读,比如:hot| today,bad| dog,peanut| butter,flip| phone。- f/v + w 连读,比如:
five ways->fai vw ei,safeway->sei fw ei,of which->ɔ fw hich,love one->lʌ vw ʌn。 - TH开头或者结尾,比如:
this thing,was that,sit there,of these,north star,with funny,both will,south side。
Vowel to Vowel
视频讲了很多,但我觉得元音和元音之间本来就是这样,并不需要“连读”。
YOU
在句子中you有j或者ch的音,比如:
j:could you,would you。ch:want you。
H
句子中h的音常常被省略掉,比如:
tell her->te ler。was he there->wʌ zi there。at first he never came->at fəs ti never came。what have you done->wʌ dəv ju dʌn。my friend has seen it twice->mai fre dəz si ni twais。I saw her sister->I saw ər sister。what was his name agiain->what wə zis name again。I told him no->I tou dim no。
当然,只有作为helping word或者function word的时候才被省略,如果是句子的谓语则不能省略,比如:you have my word 中 have 就不能省略 h。
