English with Lucy. Možda ćete primetiti da

my voice is slightly different today

je moj glas pomalo drugačiji danas, a

and that's because, I am suffering from

to je zbog toga što imam

bronchitis

bronhitis.

I caught it on a trip to Milan

Dobila sam ga na putu u Milanu i već

and I've been suffering for a while now

neko vreme bolujem i

and that's why I haven't filmed any... any

zbog toga nisam snimala nikakav

content for you, but I'm back today

sadržaj za vas, ali danas sam se vratila

with my voice sounding a little bit...

i moj glas zvuči malo više, malo više

a little bit sexy I quite enjoy it

seksi i poprilično uživam u tome.

is I'm... I'm enjoying speaking with this voice, umm

Uživam da govorim ovim glasom i

but today I'm going to try and help you

danas ću pokušati da vam pomognem

with your British English pronunciation

vezano za vaš britansko-engleski

izgovor, pa ćemo danas videti kako se

So today, we're going to be looking at

"Schwa" zvuk izgovara na kraju

the schwa sound, act the end of words

reči. Izgovoriću sada neke reči

I'm going to say some words now

and I want you to listen to the last

i želim da poslušate poslednji

syllable of the word, and also look at

slog ovih reči i takođe pogledajte

the spelling at the end of the word

pisanje na kraju reči.

BETT'ER' /ˈbetə(r)/

Better, Actor, Calendar, Colour, Centre, Leisure

ACT'OR' /ˈæktə(r)/

CALEND'AR'/ˈkælɪndə(r)/

COL'OUR' /ˈkʌlə(r)/

CENT'RE' /ˈsentə(r)/

LEIS'URE' /ˈleʒə(r)/

the last syllable the ending of these words is

Poslednji slog ovih reči se

izgovara na potpuno isti način.

pronounced in exactly the same way

Koristi se /ə/ zvuk, a to je "Schwa".

it's using the /ə/ sound with is the "Schwa"

to create this sound you need to relax

Da bismo dobili ovaj zvuk, potrebno je da opustite

your mouth, lips aparts /ə/

usta, malo razdvojite usne - /ə/.

just push a little bit of voice, through your mouth

Samo pustite malo glasa kroz usta i onda

and then stop it. /ə/

prekinite - /ə/

/ə/

/ə/. To je veoma kratak zvuk. To je bio "Schwa".

it's a very short sound, so that's

the "Schwa" however look we've got them

Međutim, pogledajte, mi smo ga

spelled in all different ways

pisali na različite načine. Imali smo

we've got '-ER'

"er" Butter,

BUTTER /ˈbʌtə(r)/

'-OR'

"or" Author, "ar" Vicar, "our" Humour,

AUTHOR /ˈɔːθə(r)/

'-AR'

VICAR /ˈvɪkə(r)/

'-OUR'

HUMOUR /ˈhjuːmə(r)/

'-RE'

"re" Metre, "ure" Agriculture.

METRE /ˈmiːtə(r)/

'-URE'

AGRICULTURE /ˈæɡrɪkʌltʃə(r)/

so, it's very important to know that when

Veoma je važno da znate da kada

you read words that end in some of these letters

čitate reči koje se završavaju na neka od ovih

slova, treba

you should normally pronounce them with a

da ih izgovarate sa

schwa sound, now it's not always the case

"Schwa" zvukom. To nije uvek slučaj.

take a look at the word

Pogledajte reč Guitar, na

"GUITAR /ɡɪˈtɑː(r)/"

for example "GUITAR /ɡɪˈtɑː(r)/"

primer. Guitar. Nije /gi tə/

it's NOT /ɡɪˈt"ə"(r)/

it's "GUITAR /ɡɪˈtɑː(r)/" , so this isn't a schwa sound

već /ɡɪˈtɑː/, tako da to nije "Schwa" zvuk.

now notice that in American English this

Imajte na umu da na američko-engleskom ovo

isn't always the case, they will often

nije uvek slučaj. Oni bi često

pronounced was ending in "R" with an "R"

reči koje se zavrašavaju sa "r" izgovorili sa "r"

sound like BETTER BUTTER they do have

zvukom, kao /ˈbetər/, /ˈbʌtər/. Oni imaju

more the "R" sound, we "drop the R" and

više "r" zvuka. Mi izostavljamo "r" u

British English, now you might be

britansko-engleskom. Možda

thinking, well I know how to say some of

razmišljate "Pa, znam kako da izgovorim neke od

these words that how do I know which

ovih reči, ali kako da znam koji

ending each one has? unfortunately there

završtak svaka od njih ima". Nažalost, ne

is no strict set of rules, but I have got

postoji striktan skup pravila, ali ja imam

a few tips, that might be able to help you

nekoliko saveta, koji bi vam mogli pomoći.

BLONDER, for example

Tip number two, is not a role just a

Savet broj 2 nije pravilo, već samo

guide a tip the "-OR" ENDING OFTEN FOLLOWS
