How to Pronounce Initial T and D Consonant Sounds | Learn English Pronunciation Course

在本视频中，

In this video, I'm going to focus on two initial consonant sounds in English.

我将重点介绍

英语中的两个声母辅音。

The /t/ sound and the /d/ sound.

/t/ 声音和 /d/ 声音。

They may be confusing because they sound quite similar.

它们可能会令人困惑，

因为它们听起来非常相似。

But they are very different.

但它们有很大不同。

And they are important sounds in the English language.

它们是英语中重要的发音。

So I want you to be able to pronounce them correctly.

所以我希望你能够正确发音。

Let's start with two example words.

让我们从两个示例单词开始。

The first example word is the word ‘ten’ with a ‘t’ sound.

第一个示例单词是 带有“t”音的

单词 “ten”。

‘ten’

“ten”

It's different from ‘den’ with a ‘d’ sound.

与发“d”音的“den”不同。

‘den’

'den'

So ‘ten’, ‘den’.

所以'十'，'den'。

Can you hear the difference?

你能听出区别吗？

Well if you can't, practice with me.

如果你不会的话，就跟我一起练习吧。

By the end of this video, I promise you you'll be able to pronounce them correctly.

在本视频结束时，

我向您保证您将能够正确发音。

Let's get started.

让我们开始吧。

Before we learn about these initial consonant sounds /t/ and /d/ in English,

在我们了解

英语中的这些声母/t/和/d/之前，

please remember to check the I.P.A spelling - it's very useful.

请记得检查一下国际音标拼写——它非常有用。

You can also watch how I move my mouth, and of course repeat after me in this video.

你也可以看我如何动嘴，

当然也可以在这个视频中跟着我重复。

You can make those sounds.

你可以发出这些声音。

Let's do it together.

我们一起做吧。

First, let's learn how to produce this /t/ sound in English.

首先，让我们学习如何用英语发出/t/这个声音。

/t/ It's voiceless.

/t/

是无声的。

You're not using your voice.

你没有使用你的声音。喉咙没有振动。

No vibration in your throat.

You're just going to push out some air.

你只需要把一些空气挤出来就可以了。

You put your tongue against your top teeth and you push out some air.

将舌头抵住上牙

，排出一些空气。

/t/ Please repeat after me.

/t/

请跟着我重复一遍。

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

Let's practice with the word ‘ten’.

让我们练习一下“十”这个词。

Please repeat after me.

请跟着我重复一遍。

‘ten’

‘十’

‘ten’ ‘ten’

‘十’

‘十’

Good.

And now moving on to the /d/ sound.

好。

现在转到 /d/ 声音。 舌头

The tongue is in the same place as with the /t/ sound.

与发出 /t/ 声音的

位置相同 。

It's actually the same but this /d/ sound is voiced.

实际上是一样的，

但是这个 /d/ 声音是浊音。

You're going to use your voice and your throat is going to vibrate.

你会用你的声音

，你的喉咙会振动。

So you put your tongue against your top teeth but this time you don't push out some air

因此，您将舌头放在上牙上

，但这一次您没有推出一些空气，而是

you produce a sound.

发出了声音。

So, /d/.

所以，/d/。

Please repeat after me.

请跟着我重复一遍。

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

Let's practice with the word ‘den’.

让我们练习一下“den”这个词。

Please repeat after me.

请跟着我重复一遍。

‘den’

‘书房’

‘den’

‘书房’

‘den’

‘书房’

Great.

太棒了。

Let's now practice using minimal pairs.

现在让我们练习使用最小对。

These words that are almost the same but the sounds are different.

这些词几乎相同，

但发音不同。

They're very good if you want to focus on the differences between the sounds.

如果您想关注

声音之间的差异，它们非常好。

First let's focus on the sounds themselves.

首先让我们关注声音本身。

Watch my mouth - repeat after me, please.

注意我的嘴——请跟着我重复一遍。

首先是 /t/ 声音。

First the /t/ sound.

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

/t/

Now the /d/ sound.

现在是 /d/ 声音。

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

/d/

Let's now do both. Please repeat after me.

现在让我们两者都做。请跟着我重复一遍。

/t/

/t/

/d/

/d/

/t/

/t/

/d/

/d/

/t/

/t/

/d/

/d/

Just a trick.

只是一个技巧。

The /t/ sound is voiceless.

/t/ 声音是清音。

The /d/ sound is voiced.

/d/ 声音为浊音。

If you really want to make sure that you can do it properly,

如果你真的想确保你能正确地做到这一点，

what you can do is you put your hand in front of your mouth…

你能做的就是把手放在嘴前……

If it's voiceless, it means that you're going to push out some air.

如果是无声的，那就意味着你要推出一些空气。

And you're going to feel some air on your hands.

你会感觉到手上有空气。

/t/

You can actually feel the air on your hand.

/t/

你实际上可以感觉到手上的空气。

If it's voiced, you won't.

如果是语音的话，你就不会。

But if it's voiced, if you put your hands on your throat, you can feel the vibration,

但如果是浊音的话，如果你把手放在喉咙上，你就能感觉到振动，

okay.

好吧。

So you can do that to make sure that you pronounce correctly.

所以你可以这样做来确保你的发音正确。

Let's now move on to our words.

现在让我们继续我们的话。

Please repeat after me.

请跟着我重复一遍。

‘ten’

‘十’

‘den’

‘书房’
