English Sounds - CH [tʃ] and JJ [dʒ] Consonants - How to make the CH [tʃ] and JJ [dʒ] Consonants

In this American English pronunciation video,

在這美式英語影片裡

we’re going to learn how to pronounce the CH and JJ consonants.

我們會學習如何發「CH」和「JJ」輔音

The CH and JJ consonants are paired together because they take the same mouth position.

「CH」和「JJ」輔音被放在一起講解是由於他們皆取同一的嘴部位置

CH is unvoiced, meaning only air passes through the mouth,

「CH」是無聲的 意思指 只有空氣從嘴巴送出

and JJ is voiced, meaning, you make a sound with the vocal cords, jj--

而「JJ」是有聲的 意思指 以聲帶發出聲響 jj--

These consonants have a stop consonant component,

這些輔音帶有一個塞音部分

but unlike stop consonants, they're always released.

然而 跟塞音輔音不同的是 他們皆被鬆開唸出

They each contain two sounds for the CH,

他們都各自包含兩個音 在「CH」中

we’re combining the T, tt, and the SH, sh, to make ch.

把「t」跟「sh」合起來變成「ch」

For the J sound, we’re combining dd and zh to make jj.

在「J」中 我們把「dd」跟「zh」合起來變成「jj」

The teeth come together and the lips flair, just like in the sh and zh sounds.

牙齒夾起來 然後雙唇嘟起來 有如「sh」跟「zh」一樣

But the tongue position is like the tt and dd sounds.

可是舌頭擺放位置就跟「tt」和「dd」一樣

The tongue lifts so the front, flat part of the tongue touches the roof of the mouth.

舌頭往上抬起來 以致前平舌的部分接觸到嘴巴的頂部

We stop the air in our throat, and then we release everything, ch, jj.

把空氣憋在喉部 然後完全釋出 「ch」「jj」

We release the air at the vocal cords, release the tongue down from the roof of the mouth,

把聲帶的空氣釋出 把舌頭從嘴頂下放

release the teeth so they part a little, and release the lips by relaxing them.

把雙齒鬆開 由此他們分開少許 然後鬆開以令雙唇釋開

Ch, jj.

Ch, jj
