怎样提高你的口音,听起来更像英国人。
00:09
Today, we're looking at the Schwa.
2
9620
2000
今天,我们将探究中性元音/ə/
00:11
It sounds like *the schwa sound*
3
11900
2160
它听起来像schwa的声音。
00:14
And it's represented in phonetics as this symbol : /Ə/
4
14200
3420
它用音标表示为 /Ə/
00:17
You see that in dictionnaries when you're trying to find the pronunciation of words.
5
17620
4220
当你想在字典查询单词发音时你会发现它。
00:22
This is the most common sound in the English language.
6
22580
2620
这是英语里最常见的发音。
00:25
Why? Well, one of the reasons
7
25700
2040
为什么?嗯,一个原因是:
00:28
is any word which finishes with an "er" sound
8
28240
3960
很多以 "er" 的发音结束的单词
00:32
is pronounced with the Schwa.
9
32680
1960
是发Schwa音。
00:34
The /Ə/ sound.
10
34800
1600
发音为/Ə/
00:37
So, firstly,
11
37200
1180
所以,首先,
00:38
repeat after me, make sure you have the Schwa sound right.
12
38380
3220
跟我读,确保你将Schwa 音读对。
00:42
/Ə/
13
42120
500
/Ə/
00:44
I'm sure you were perfect, well done!
14
44000
2300
我相信你读得很完美,嗯,非常棒!
00:46
So, this word, we pronounce it like
15
46760
2540
因此,这个单词,我们发音就像这样:
00:49
Ever /evƏ/
16
49740
640
Ever /evƏ/
00:52
Better /betƏ/
17
52080
780
Better /betƏ/
00:53
Maybe you joined the last class with the glottal T and the true T,
18
53860
3600
也许你听了上堂有关深喉发音T和正式发音T的课,
00:57
you can combine what you've learnt from these two classes.
19
57640
3520
你可以将所学的两节课的内容结合起来。
01:01
the glottal T and the Schwa :
20
61940
2640
深喉音T和Schwa音:
01:05
Be'er /be'Ə/ (better with the glottal T and the Schwa)
21
65300
560
Be'er /be'Ə/ (带有深喉音T和Schwa音)
01:06
"be'er", so, it could be pronounced like that.
22
66800
3120
"be'er",所以它是可以这么发音的。
01:11
The same here :
23
71080
1140
这个也是同样的:
01:12
"Wa'er" (water avec le glottal T et le schwa) or "water" (avec le schwa)
24
72840
1840
"Wa'er" (带有深喉音T和schwa音)
01:15
Again, the "er", pronounced like a schwa.
25
75040
3060
再来一遍,"er"发音时像schwa音(/Ə/)。
01:18
"Water" ou "wa'er", however you want to say it.
26
78280
3120
"Water"或者 "wa'er",无论你怎么说都行。
01:23
Teacher /ti:ʧƏ/ (with the schwa)
27
83340
740
eacher /ti:ʧƏ/ (带有schwa音)
01:24
Doctor /dɒktƏ/ (with the schwa)
28
84940
840
Doctor /dɒktƏ/ (带有schwa音)
01:26
Adventure /ƏdventʃƏ/ (with the schwa)
29
86820
1080
Adventure /ƏdventʃƏ/ (带有schwa音)
01:28
So, any "er" sound at the end of a word
30
88220
2780
所以,无论哪个以"er"结尾的单词,
01:32
is pronounced with a Schwa.
31
92120
1360
都要发 Schwa 音(/Ə/)
01:33
Americans they pronounce the R very strongly, for example :
32
93720
4000
美国人把R的音发的很强,例如:
01:37
an American would pronounce it
33
97720
1420
美国人可能发音成:
01:39
Ever /evƏr/
34
99140
960
Ever /evƏr/
01:40
Better /betƏr/
35
100100
960
Better /betƏr/
01:41
Water /watƏr/
36
101260
960
Water /watƏr/
01:42
I'm exagerating but
37
102880
1580
我很夸张,但是,
01:44
they pronounce the R, we pronounce the Schwa!
38
104880
2480
他们发的是R的音,我们发的是Schwa音( /Ə/)
01:48
Not only when a word finishes with an "er" sound,
39
108440
3480
不只是当一个单词以er结尾时(才这样),
01:52
it also goes for the weak syllables in a word.
40
112300
2820
当音节弱读时也同样适用。
01:55
For example :
41
115280
880
例如:
01:57
In this word, where is the stress?
42
117200
2420
在这个单词中,重音在哪?
02:01
Well, it's in "-lice"
43
121320
1580
是的,是在"-lice"上,
02:03
"po-LICE"
44
123340
720
"po-LICE"
02:04
The stress is here,
45
124920
1480
重音在这里,
02:07
so the weak syllable
46
127760
1360
因此弱读音节
02:09
"po-" is pronounced, again, with the Schwa.
47
129900
2760
"po-"是用Schwa音读出来的。
02:13
/pƏ/-/li:s/
48
133060
1480
/pƏ/-/li:s/
02:14
Police
49
134940
500
Police(警察)
02:16
The next one : where is the stress with this one?
50
136800
2180
下一个:这个的重音在哪?
02:20
Of course it's here, on "Ta-"
51
140480
2000
当然它在这儿,在 "Ta-"上
02:23
So this one takes the Schwa
52
143160
1980
所以这个用 Schwa音
02:25
Taken /teɪkƏn/
53
145500
1040
Taken /teɪkƏn/
02:26
/Ən/
54
146980
500
/Ən/
02:28
Taken
55
148160
560
Taken(带走,拿走)
02:30
This one : where is the stress?
56
150060
1580
这个:重音在哪?
02:36
So, here has the Schwa sound.
57
156280
1740
因此,Schwa音在这。
02:38
/Ə/
58
158480
500
/Ə/
02:39
/Əbaʊt/
59
159600
560
/Əbaʊt/
02:40
About
60
160920
500
About(关于,有关)
02:42
This one, very commonly used word in particularly classrooms
61
162960
3740
这个,特别是在教室里普遍用到的
02:47
I hear it like "pencil" (with a i sound)
62
167080
2220
我听它感觉像"pencil" (带有i音)
02:49
No! Where is the stress?
63
169680
1600
不对!重音在哪?
02:54
"PEN-"
64
174340
500
PEN-"
02:55
So, "PEN-cil"
65
175320
960
所以是, "PEN-cil"
02:57
"-cil" has the schwa sound.
66
177020
2540
-cil" 含有schwa 音。
03:00
So, let's go through them one more time :
67
180340
2260
所以,我们再来回顾它们一遍:
03:02
Repeat with me, so you can compare your pronounciation with mine!
68
182820
4260
跟我一起重复读,这样你就能和我的发音一起比较
03:07
So,
69
187620
500
所以,
03:09
Ever /evƏ/
70
189720
720
Ever /evƏ/
03:12
Better /betƏ/ or /be'Ə/
71
192220
1700
Better /betƏ/ 或/be'Ə/
03:16
Water /wɔːtƏ/ or /wɔː'Ə/
