按照对口腔中的气流不同的控制方 法分类
爆破音:在相当时间内,气流通道完全阻塞,气流(一般由于肺部的 动作)受压,然后突然放开阻塞,发出爆破的声音。
塞擦音:其形成如爆破音,但发音器官放开阻塞较慢,因而在放开阻 塞时可以听得出相应的摩擦。
摩擦音:气流通道收窄,气流通过时发出可听擦音。 鼻音:口腔通道完全阻塞,但软颚下垂,气流自由通过鼻腔发出的音。 舌边音:气流通道中央阻塞,在阻塞处的两边或一边留下通道让气流

美式英语发音规则概要

美式英语发音规则概要

美式英语发音规则概要1.元音音标:- 短元音(短读):/æ/(如cat)、/ɛ/(如bed)、/ɪ/(如sit)、/ɒ/(如hot)、/ʌ/(如but)、/ʊ/(如book)。

- 长元音(长读):/eɪ/(如day)、/iː/(如see)、/ɑː/(如car)、/ɔː/(如four)、/ɜː/(如bird)、/uː/(如moon)。

2.辅音音标:- 爆破音:/p/(如pen)、/b/(如bat)、/t/(如top)、/d/(如dog)、/k/(如cat)、/g/(如go)。

- 摩擦音:/f/(如fish)、/v/(如van)、/θ/(如thick)、/ð/(如this)、/s/(如sit)、/z/(如zebra)、/ʃ/(如fish)、/ʒ/(如measure)、/h/(如house)。

- 鼻音:/m/(如man)、/n/(如no)、/ŋ/(如ring)。

- 半元音:/j/(如yellow)、/w/(如water)。

3.元音变音规则:- 元音前有r的时候,元音的发音会发生变化,如:/ɜː/变为/ɜr/(如bird)、/ɔː/变为/ɔr/(如north)。

- 元音之间的相邻会产生垂直音调,如/iː/与/aɪ/结合发音为/ai/(如my)。

4.音节:- 单音节词:一音节的英语单词的发音比较简单,如chat、bat等。

- 多音节词:多音节的英语单词较复杂,常按照单音节词的发音规则进行拆分,如import(im-port)。

5.弱读现象:- 在句子中,一些辅音会因为语调的缘故发音较弱,如关系代词that的/t/在一些情况下会被弱读。

6.连读规则:- 元音、元音之间遇到的情况,连读规则可以帮助简化发音,如we are可以连读为/weər/(音标)。

- 辅音、元音之间也会发生连读,比如have got可以连读为/hævgɒt/(音标)。

7.非语音元素:- 美式英语中包含许多非语音元素,如填充词(uh、um)和停顿(pause)等。

美语发音规则

美语发音规则

精心整理音变主要有连读、失音、弱化、浊化、同化、重音、缩读等形式。

这些形式的产生可以归结为一个原则,即“Economy”—“经济”原则或称为“省力”原则。

我的语言学老师说,他曾一度为选择的研究方向为语言学而懊悔,因为那时他认为语言学既枯燥又不实用,但这一省力原则却化解了他所有的苦恼,并让他为语言学着迷。

因为“省力”这两个简单的字眼可以解释几乎所有的音变现象,人是很懒的,对于最经常的行为——说话,当然要想许多省事的法子,于是也就产生了多种为省力而衍变的音变现象。

牢记省力原则,在我们读英语的时候,让自己的唇舌处于放松的状态,轻松的去言归正题一、连读1如:这里注意:前面的定冠词必须用a 一样。

2、以辅音结尾的单词+h 开头的单词h 不发音,与前面的辅音whatwil(lhe)[wili]do? Ha(she)doneitbefore?Mus(the)[ti]go?Canhedoit?Shouldhe….?Tellhimtoaskher….Lea(vehim)[vim].Forhim(1、辅音2、辅音3、辅音三、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。

规则:1、辅音爆破音或摩擦音后面跟的是爆破音、破擦音和摩擦等,前面的辅音要失去爆破。

这样的例子有很多很多,红色标注的辅音不发音:Sitdown:发音再次的老师都不会发出[t]音Contactlens:Bigcake四、浊化1、[S]Stand:2如:writer,听起来和rider的发音几乎没有区别letter—ladderoutof美国人和加拿大人发音为了省事,习惯清音浊化,尤其是[t]在单词的中间一定会浊化成[d],但英国人发音不会这样,这也是英音和美音的一大区别。

了解这一浊化原则,会给听力带来一些帮助。

五、弱读一般来说:实词重读,如动词、名词、副词等;六、节奏不过在看老外教你十年寒窗苦读英语,为谁辛苦为谁忙?当然是用来和老外“侃”喽。

美语发音规则与技巧 语音法则

美语发音规则与技巧 语音法则

Word Stress单词重音1.音节介绍单词并非英语语言的最小单位,它是由一个或多个音节组成的。

英语中,每个音节至少包括一个元音,还可能包括与它相邻的一个或几个辅音。

元音就好比是音节的心脏,只要判断出单词中有多少个元音发音,就可以知道该单词有多少个音节。

注意,这里指的是元音发音,而非元音字母“a, e, i, o, u”。

比如,单词line /lain/中有两个元音字母i和e,但只有字母i发音,字母e却不发音,因此这个单词只有一个音节。

我们可以把单词中的音节看作音乐中的节拍,通过打节拍,来体会单词中音节的变化。

例如:单音节单词(1拍)I 我act 行动cry 哭want 想要child 孩子双音节单词(2拍)cor-rect 正确的ac-tive 积极的for-get 忘记de-gree 程度ac-tor 男演员三音节单词(3拍)Oc-to-ber 十月ac-ci-dent 事故ra-di-o 收音机I-tal-ian 意大利人po-ta-to 马铃薯多音节单词(4或5拍)dis-cov-er-y 发现ac-tiv-i-ty 活动ag-ri-cul-ture 农业vo-cab-u-la-ry 词汇2.音节重读在打拍子数音节的过程中您一定会发现,在含有两个和两个以上音节的单词中,并非每个音节都一样清晰、一样响亮、一样长短。

在这些单词中,有一个音节会比其它音节延续时间更长、发音更清晰、音调更响亮,这个音节被称为重读音节,相当于音乐中的强拍;其它音节被称为非重读音节,相当于音乐中的弱拍。

比如双音节单词mother ['m804],第一个音节moth的读音要重一些,声音要拖长一些,属重读音节,而er则要弱读一些。

请听下列节拍,注意其中的重读: 1. da da da da 2. da da da da3. da da da da da da4. da da da da da da5. da da da da da da音节重读是汉语发音和英文发音的最大区别之一。

美语的发音规则

美语的发音规则

1 美语的发音规则英美发音体系不尽相同,在某些方面差异很大。

如当字母a位于辅音[s]、[θ]、[f]、[m]、[n]前时,美音为[^],英音为[a];在英音中,字母"r"只有在元音前是才发音,在元音后一般不发音,而美音中,一般均发卷舌音[r];字母组合"wh"在英音中,为[w],美音则为[hw]等。

作者:McSilence 2007-4-4 09:52 回复此发言--------------------------------------------------------------------------------2 美语的发音规则重读。

通常句中的实义词(名词、实义动词、数词等)是句子的关键词,携带重要信息应重读。

如在"You have finished the job."一句中,"finished"和"job"一般重读;有时为表达特定的含义,把重读放在本不该重读的词上。

如上一句话,把重音放在"have" 上,则含有说话人未料到你已完成了工作的意思。

2.2弱读。

英语中的介词、冠词、连词等虚词有两种读音:一种为强读形式,用于单念和连贯言语;另一种为弱读形式,用于言语的轻读。

轻读表现在元音的弱化上,如"at"[?t]弱化为[эt]。

口语中语气越随便,语流越快,弱化现象越频繁,也就越难懂。

作者:McSilence 2007-4-4 09:53 回复此发言--------------------------------------------------------------------------------3 美语的发音规则2.3同化。

一个音受临音影响而变化的现象就是同化。

如副音[d]与[j]相邻时,被同化为[d э],辅音[t]与[j]相邻时,被同化为[t∫]。

连读所构成的音节一般都不重读,只需顺其自然地一带而过,不可读得太重,也不可音。

(连读符号:~)二、连读规则1.“辅音+元音”型连读在同一个意群里,如果相邻两词中的前一个词是以辅音结尾,后一个词是以元音开头,这就要将辅音与元音拼起来连读。

I’m~an~English boy.It~is~an~old book.Let me have~a look~at~it.Ms Black worked in~an~office last~yesterday.I called~you half~an~hour~ago.Put~it~on, please.Not~at~all.Please pick~it~up.2.“r/re+元音”型连读如果前一个词是以-r或者-re结尾,后一个词是以元音开头,这时的r或re不但要发/r/,而且还要与后面的元音拼起来连读。

连读、加音、爆破、同化、省音、弱读、浊化1. 连读:两个相邻单词首尾音素自然的拼读在一起,中间不停顿,被称为连读。

连读只发生在同一意群之内,即意思联系紧密的短语或从句之内。

相邻的两词在意义上必须密切相关,同属一个意群。

连读所构成的音节一般都不重读,只需顺其自然地一带而过,不可读得太重,也不可加音。

1)词尾辅音+词首元音,如:Standˆup.Notˆatˆall.Putˆitˆon, please.Please pickˆitˆupI'mˆanˆEnglish boy.Itˆisˆanˆold book.Let me haveˆa lookˆatˆit.Ms Black worked inˆanˆoffice.I called you halfˆanˆhourˆago.2)词尾不发音r或re+词首元音,词尾r发音/r/。

如farˆawaHereˆis a letter for you.Hereˆare fourˆeggs.whereˆis my cup?Whereˆare your brotherˆand sisterThey're my fatherˆand mother.I looked forˆit hereˆand there.Thereˆis a football underˆit5Thereˆare some books on the desk.there 与is 连读为theris [ðєә ris] there与are 连读为therare[ðєә ra注:当有意群进行停顿时不可连读。

当短语或从句之间按意群进行停顿时,意群与意群之间即使有两个相邻的辅音与元音出现,也不可连读。

如:Isˆit a hat orˆa cat?(hat 与or 之间不可以连读)Thereˆisˆa good book in my desk. (book 与in 之间不可以连读)Can you speakˆEnglish or French? (English 与or 之间不可以连读Shall we meet atˆeight or ten tomorrow morning? (meet 与 at,eight 与or 之间不可以连读)She opened the door and walkedˆin. (door 与and 之间不可以连读)2. 加音在连贯的语流中,人们往往会在两个元音之间加入一个外加音帮助发音,从而更加流畅地表达意思。

This makes studying easier and gives them more time to do other things.On Thursday, I had a very lazy day. I woke up early and first squeezed oranges into juice.

美语发音规则音变主要有连读、失音、弱化、浊化、同化、重音、缩读等形式。

这些形式的产生可以归结为一个原则,即“Economy” —“经济”原则或称为“省力”原则。

我的语言学老师说,他曾一度为选择的研究方向为语言学而懊悔,因为那时他认为语言学既枯燥又不实用,但这一省力原则却化解了他所有的苦恼,并让他为语言学着迷。

因为“省力”这两个简单的字眼可以解释几乎所有的音变现象,人是很懒的,对于最经常的行为——说话,当然要想许多省事的法子,于是也就产生了多种为省力而衍变的音变现象。

牢记省力原则,在我们读英语的时候,让自己的唇舌处于放松的状态,轻松的去读英语,我想发音的感觉一定会有所不同。

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,以及最后一项关于节奏的小文章,希望能有所帮助!一、连读连读有两种规则,分别为:1、以辅音结尾的单词+元音开头的单词:要连读如:I’d li(ke a)nother bow(l o)f rice.这里like / laik / 以辅音结尾,another 以元音开头,所以连读注意: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。

2、以辅音结尾的单词 + h开头的单词h不发音,与前面的辅音what wil(l he) [wili]do?Ha(s he) done it before?Mus(t he) [ti] go?Can he do it?Should he….?Tell him to ask her….Lea(ve him) [vim].For him (连读这个词,会发现和forum 很相似)我第一次知道这一连读规则时,兴奋不已,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。

再次证实”Economy”。

二、音的同化音的同化也是一种连读的现象,两个词之间非常平滑的过渡,导致一个音受临音影响而变化。

主要是以下三种方式:1、辅音[d]与[j]相邻时,被同化为[dэ]:Would you....?2、辅音[t]与[j]相邻时,被同化为[t∫]:Can’t you...?3、辅音[s]与[j]相邻时, 被同化为[∫]: Miss you三、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。

规则:1、辅音爆破音或摩擦音后面跟的是爆破音、破擦音和摩擦等,前面的辅音要失去爆破。

这样的例子有很多很多,红色标注的辅音不发音:Sit down: 发音再次的老师都不会发出 [t] 音Contact lens:Big cakeDad told meHuge changeGood night四、浊化1、[S] 后面的清辅音要浊化Discussion: [k] 浊化成 [g]Stand: [t] 浊化成[d]Expression: [p]浊化成2、美音中:[t] 在单词的中间被浊化成[d]如:writer,听起来和 rider 的发音几乎没有区别letter—ladderout of美国人和加拿大人发音为了省事,习惯清音浊化,尤其是[t]在单词的中间一定会浊化成[d],但英国人发音不会这样,这也是英音和美音的一大区别。

了解这一浊化原则,会给听力带来一些帮助。

五、弱读一般来说:实词重读,如动词、名词、副词等;虚词弱读,如介词、代词等弱读的规则一般是:元音音节弱化成 [ə] 或比如说如下几个单词:for/to/some/does/of查字典会发现这些词都至少有两种读音,如for: 重读时[fR:] , 弱读时 [fE] 六、节奏对于英语的节奏,我也把握不好,而且还为此郁闷不已。

在我认为,中国人说普通化,一个句子的标准节奏和语调往往只有一个,我想英语也应该是这样,但是怎么样才是标准语调呢?特意为这个问题问过英语老师,不同的外国人说同一个陈述句会有不同得语调吗?她告诉我是的。

不过在看了下面这段话之后,我想她可能误我了。

:)老外教你“杀手锏”:注意说话的节奏十年寒窗苦读英语,为谁辛苦为谁忙?当然是用来和老外“侃”喽。

那外国人究竟如何看待中国人说的英语,他们说话有没有诀窍呢?记者请教了克里斯多佛·汉普顿---英国驻上海总领事馆的考官协调,他也是当天演讲比赛的裁判之一。

克里斯多佛一开口就指出了国人学英语最大的“软档”“中国人喜欢在单词的读音上纠缠不休。

尤其是年轻人,总希望自己能说一口标准的美式英语,最好是带点纽约口音的美式英语。

于是,他们很努力地听广播、看电视,刻意模仿美国人的说话腔调。

经过长时间的磨练,有些人的发音甚至比土生土长的美国人还地道。

但是,我就算蒙着眼睛,也能轻易分辨出说话的是中国人,还是美国人。

因为中国人说英语没有节奏。

”克里斯多佛所说的节奏并不仅指说话的速度快慢,还包含了许多平时不被重视的小环节,比如语调的升降、词语的重音、句子在何处停顿。

中学的中文语文书中倒是有过断句练习,可几乎所有的英语教科书里都没有类似的章节,也鲜有老师会教学生这一套。

所以,大多人不知道,英语句子也有自己拆分的规则。

发言者要么按照中文的思维习惯,随心所欲把句子“大卸八块”;要么练习肺活量,一句话从头连到尾不喘气。

于是,中国人听起来清清楚楚的句子,到外国人耳朵里就变成了“不知所云”。

要改变这个习惯也不难。

克里斯多佛认为,只要连续练习几个月,一个英语水平普通的人也能说出漂亮的英语,甚至达到“以假乱真”的程度,和讲母语不分上下。

他的练习方法很简单---找一盒老外读的标准磁带,在录音机里不停顿地播放。

然后你看着文字稿,亦步亦趋地跟着他的节奏读。

这时候,充分调动你的耳朵,适应外国人的语音语调,还要像个回声筒似地反映出来。

久而久之,当你习惯了老外的节奏,只要具备5000个基本单词,就能应付一般的对话啊,终于写完啦!喝口水,开始写结束语。

我在最初练发音的时候,不知道这些规则,只是喜欢模仿,养成了不少坏习惯,老师总说我喜欢吞音,苦恼极了,以至于我发音开始小心翼翼,字字清楚,但我知道这样肯定是不对的。

所以我便开始收集和总结这方面的规则,不但之前的困惑得到解决,发音也有了很大的改善,现在写下这篇音变规则,真心希望它能对你有所帮助!另外如果有错误之处,请不吝赐教!清辅音浊化——之详细介绍一、简单认识按照英语读音的习惯,在s音后面的清辅音会读成相应的浊辅音。

这就是清辅音浊化。

例如:spy /spai/ 轻辅音浊化就应该是/sbai/spoon/spu:n /轻辅音浊化就应该是/sbu:n/star /sta:/ 轻辅音浊化就应该是 /sda:/清辅音在/s/后浊化如stick 中t读作/d/辅音浊化也并非完全的发浊音,它是界于清音和浊音之间那儿!发音并不如浊音那么强烈!二、理性分析关于辅音连缀/s/音后头情爆破音所谓"浊化"这个问题的语音细节挺复杂,三言两语不易讲透。

这里仅凭经验试图粗线条式地说几条,希望对说中国话的人学英语有点帮助。

1)众所周知,同一音节中,紧接在/s/音后头的/p,t,k/和作为音节开头的/p,t,k/语音特点是不同的。

国内英语教学界历来普遍把这种语音变化称作“浊化”。

我认为这种说法从语音学角度不够准确,至少是以偏概全;从英语教学角度更是容易产生误导效果。

2)所谓“浊”,无非是与“清”相对。

英语/p,t,k/是清爆破辅音,与浊爆破辅音/b,d,g/相对。

汉族学生,除了少数方言人士之外,一般都需要花一定的功夫才能正确掌握英语/b,d,g/的发音,学会把“浊”音“浊”够。

若不强调模仿这一点,不作特别的“浊化”训练,自然模仿力不强的大部分学生就肯定会用汉语的[b,d,g]来代替英语的/p,t,k/,结果说出来的英语虽然在很多情况下都还不至于叫人误解,但语音效果肯定很差,一句话:不像英语!为什么呢?因为汉语[b,d,g]和[p,t,k]的区别可以说纯粹是送气与不送气的区别。

可英语呢?/p,t,k/是强清爆破辅音,在一般情况下发音都伴随较强的送气过程。

而/b,d,g/则示弱浊爆破音,除了一般不送气之外,多半还有喉头声带震动,即所谓浊化。

最后这一点,恰恰是汉语所没有的。

例如很多人把 a guy 发成十足的“厄盖”,甚至还以为两者发音本来就是一样的,这就是因为他们“浊”不了那个该浊的 g。

反过来,经过努力好不容易把英语的 /b,d,g/ “浊”够了,发正确了,一听说/p,t,k/在/s/后面要“浊化”,很多人(包括我们的语音老师)竟会把 sky / spade / start 发成 sgy / sbade/ sdart,那就矫枉过正反成谬误了。

其实,/s/后面/p,t,k/的主要语音变化,不是“浊化”,而是失去了原来很强的送气特点罢了,其效果,就成了和汉语不送气的 [b,d,g]紧贴在/s/后头一样。

3)是否在音节重读的时候才会出现这种“送气变成不送气”的现象呢?不是的。

可以说,哪怕是最强的重读音节里,如 spin中, /p/音都成了不送气的。

在非重读音节里,就更不消说了。

4)从英语语音学(而不是英语音位学)角度分析,这些音质变化也可能可以归入“浊化”范围,但这对我们一般学英语的人来说是没有多少实际意义的,因此不属于本帖讨论范围。

5)有兴趣的朋友可参考一些权威语音学著作,例如英国Daniel Jones 和A.C. Gimson 的著作等。

三、问答中解释问:coast中的"t"是否被前面的"s"所浊化为"d"。

答:不是。

1、清辅音浊化只是一种发音现象,不是规则,地道英语教学者都反对专门制定一个规则来说明这个问题。

2、总的发音规则只有一条:按照字典里的注音读,要怎么变化就按地道英语的习惯。

3、s 后面的清辅音被浊化,只是清辅音浊化的一小部分,很多时候不用加s 也可能被浊化。

如water, happy, meeting, walking等等,地道英语一般将这些单词中间那个清辅音发成对应的浊辅音了,才象英语。

4、S后面的清辅音浊化现象可以这样归纳:清辅音跟着一个元音,前面又有一个 s ,无论是在单词的最前面还是中间,只要是在重读音节或次重读音节里,一般都读成对应浊辅音,如stand, strike, speak, sky 等等,值得一提的是strike不是不用变,而是它“tr”本来所发的音已是浊辅音,但也要变成“dr”所发的那个音 (如dream中的“dr”所发的音)。

其实谁也没有规定要这样读,如果你拿着这个问题问老外,他们大多都答不出来,只是这些相关的单词中的清辅音读着读着自然就会变成浊辅音了。
