七大特殊单词重音规则
1. 英语中派生词的重音和词根重音一致。派生词就是一些有同样词根的词。比如:act, active, actively com'pare com'parison
2. 带有下列后缀的词:-ary, -ery, -ory, -ism, -ist, -mony, -ment, -ary等,重音通常在第一个音节上。例如:customary scientist slavery factory realism
3. 带下列前缀的词:a-, ab-, ac-, ad-, al-, be-, con-, de-, dis-, em-, en-, in-, mis-, re-, trans-, un-重音通常在第二音节上。例如:a'bout ab'duce ac'cede ad'mire be'long con'sult de'tect dis'like
4. 带下列后缀的词:-aim, -ain, -cur, -eem, -duce, -ere, -firm, -gn, -oin, -oke, -ose, -pt, -rce, -self, -ume重音通常在第二音节。contain occur sincere design confirm
5. 带下列后缀的词:-ade, -ain, -ee, -eer, -esque, -ette, -ique, -ine, -oon重音通常在最后一个音节。这些词一般都是从法语中借来的词。例如:emplo'yee an'tique
maga'zine ci'gar volun'teer gaso'line
6. 带下列后缀的词:-eous, -ial, -ian, -ic, -ics, -ient, -ion, -ious, -ish, -it, -liar, -sive, -tal, -uous重音通常在倒数第二音节上。例如:oc'casion re'lation as'tonish de'posit mu'sician
7.但是有些派生词,比如从名词派生出来的形容词,它的重音就得发生变化,通常是后移。例如:'science scien'tific 'accident acci'dental 'democrat demo'cratic 'politics po'litical
其实,英语词汇的重音位置通常是有规律的。例如:有些双音节词汇做名词时重音往往落在首音节上;而做动词时,重音就落在第二音节上了。这些词汇常见的有:addict,accent,abstract,annex等。
可见,掌握好并读准单词的重音有一定的规律可循。
为了便于记忆和学习,现将部分规则按重音位置和字母顺序作如下归纳,并从理论上进行简要分析。
