连读详细规则

连读的条件：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，也不可音。(连读符号：~)

(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~Englis h 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.

第一招

Consonant and Vowel 辅音与元音

When one word ends with a consonant and the next word begins with a vowel sound, take the final consonant off the first word and attach it to the following vowel sound

如果一个单词以一个辅音结尾，紧跟的下一个单词的词首是元音的话，把第一个单词词尾的辅音从第一个单词脱离，使它与紧跟着的元音连在一起。

(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。

They’re my father~and mother.

I looked for~it here~and there.

There~is a football under~it.

There~are some books on the desk.

Here~is a letter for you.

Here~are four~eggs.

But where~is my cup?

Where~are your brother~and sister?

但是，如果一个音节的前后都有字母r，即使后面的词以元音开头，也不能连读。

The black clouds are coming nearer and nearer.（nearer与and不可连读）

(3)“辅音+半元音”型连读

英语语音中的/j/和/w/是半元音，如果前一个词是以辅音结尾，后一个词是以半元音，特别是/j/开头，此时也要连读。

Thank~you.

Nice to meet~you.

Did~you get there late~again?

Would~you like~a cup~of tea？

Could~you help me, please?

“音的同化”

—常把/d/+/j/读成/dV/，did you听上成了/dIdVu/，would you成了/wudVu/，could you成了/kudVu/。

(4)“元音+元音”型连读如果前一个词以元音结尾，后一个词以元音开头，这两个音往往也要自然而不间断地连读到一起。

I~am Chinese.

He~is very friendly to me.

She wants to study~English.

How~and why did you come here?

She can’t carry~it.

It’ll take you three~hours to walk there.

The question is too~easy for him to answer.

第二招

V owel and V owel 元音与元音

When a word ends in a vowel sound and the next word begins with a vowel sound, they are connected with a glide between the two vowels.

如果一个单词以元音结束，下一个单词以元音开始的话，两个元音之间用一个滑音连在一起。

(5)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。Is~it a~hat or a cat?（hat与or之间不可以连读）

There~is~a good book in my desk. （book与in之间不可以连读）

Can you speak~English or French? （English与or之间不可以连读）

Shall we meet at~eight or ten tomorrow morning? （meet与at，eight与or之间不可以连读）

She opened the door and walked~in. （door与and之间不可以连读）

第三招Consonant and Consonant 辅音与辅音

When a word ends with one consonant, and the next word begins with the same or similar consonant, hold the final consonant as you connect it to the next word.

如果一个单词的词尾是辅音，下一个单词以相同或相似的辅音开始的话，用第一个单词的辅音词尾来连接下一个单词。

deep pond/bus station/this zoo/top book/jot down

第四招Consonant Cluster 辅音群

When there are several consonants between the end of one word and the beginning of another, you're linking clustered consonants in two separate words. These are the most challenging of any linked words. You must pronounce three, four, or even five consonants all together. But there are a few things you can do to make this process a little easier.

如果一个单词的词尾与下一个单词的词首之间有几个辅音的话，你就要把这些挤在一起的辅音连起来读。在所有单词的连接中，这是最难的，因为你必须把三个、四个，甚至是五个辅音连在一起来发音。不过，还是有几个方法可以使事情变得容易些。
