Welcome to this English pronunciation video.

欢迎观看这个英语发音视频。

In today's video, I'm going to focus on two important vowel sounds in English.

在今天的视频中，我将重点关注英语中两个重要的元音。

/ɑ:/ and /ɜ:/

/ɑ:/ 和 /ɜ:/

They are very very important,

它们非常非常重要，

and they actually sound differently although they sound similar.

虽然听起来很相似，但实际上听起来不同。

So let's take two example words.

让我们举两个例子。

The first word is ‘far’.

第一个词是“远”。

Can you hear this very deep sound /ɑ:/ ?

你能听到这个深沉的声音 /ɑ:/ 吗？

‘far’

'远'

And the second word is ‘fur’.

第二个词是'毛皮'。

Can you hear the /ɜ:/ sound?

你能听到 /ɜ:/ 的声音吗？

‘fur’

“毛皮”

So ‘far’ and ‘fur’.

所以“远”和“毛皮”。

Now I know they sound very similar, but they are different.

现在我知道它们听起来很相似，但它们是不同的。

And if you keep practicing with me, by the end of this video,

如果您继续和我一起练习，在本视频结束时，

I promise you will hear and pronounce them correctly.
