As it's almost Thanksgiving, today I'm going to show you how to make one of my favorite

快到感恩节了，今天我给大家分享一道菜的做法，它是我最喜欢吃的菜之一

Thanksgiving treats. And that is a pumpkin pie, which we're going to make from scratch.

那就是南瓜派啦，我们会从头做起

Of course, we'll also learn some about American English pronunciation.

当然，我们也会学习一些美式英语的发音

First, we pick out the pumpkin. >>What do you think of this one?

首先我们挑南瓜。》你觉得这个怎么样？

What do you think of this one? There's a lot

你觉得这个怎么样？

of reduction and linking happening in this phrase. The T in the word 'what' is generally

这句短句中有很多省略和连读。‘what’中的字母发音时通常要停顿，而不是释放出来。

pronounced as a stop, not released. However, the next word is 'do', which begins with a

但是，下一个是'do'，以d音开头

D sound. That's the same position as the T. So in this particular case, rather than having

它同t音一样在相同的位置。所以，这种特殊情况下，处理更加随意，t音完全去掉，而不是从停顿的t音过渡到d音

a stop T go into a D, it's even more casual and the T is dropped altogether. What do you

what do you thingk? Wha-duh-yuh,Wha-duh-yuh

think? Wha-duh-yuh, wha-duh-yuh. This is a common way to pronounce the word 'what' and

这是一种普遍的方式读what do

'do'. What do you think? What do you like? What do you mean? ... for example. And you've

What do you think? What do you like? What do you mean? 等等

probably noticed that in the word 'do', the oo vowel is reduced to the schwa. This is

你可能已经注意到‘do’这个词中/u/音已经省略成中性元音/ə/

the same as in the word 'you': the vowel is reduced to the schwa. Wha-duh-yuh, wha-duh-yuh,

同样在词'you'中，/u/音省略成中性元音 /ə/，Wha-duh-yuh, wha-duh-yuh,

wha-duh-yuh. So those three unaccented words are all linked together, low in pitch, very

所以这是三个非重音的词连接在一起，音调放低，流畅完成

smooth. Wha-duh-yuh, wha-duh-yuh, What do you think? So the word 'think' is stressed,

Wha-duh-yuh, wha-duh-yuh, What do you think? 所以'think'这个词是强调的

none of the sounds reduce here. But the next word, 'of', I pronounce this with only the

没有任何音可以省略。但是下一个词‘of’，我只发中性元音/ə/

schwa sound. So I reduce it so much that the vv, V sound is dropped altogether. What do

我省略后，/v/音完全去掉了

you think of this one? So the word 'of' is simply pronounce uh, uh, uh, uh-this one,

What do you think of this one?所以词'of'只读/ə/， /ə-ðɪs wʌn/

uh-this one. What do you think of this one? Listen again.

What do you think of this one? 再听一遍

>>What do you think of this one?

What do you think of this one?

Also notice Mark makes a stop T on the word 'out'. He does not release it: out. He simply
