英语口语辅音加半元音
Hello, everybody. Good to see you. This is Elliott from ETJ English and today, I have a really special lesson for you.
大家好。很高兴见到你们。我是来自 ETJ 英语频道的埃利奥特，今天，我要给大家带来一节特殊的课程。
I'm going to be teaching you two very important sounds and techniques which will make you sound more British. But when I say sound more British, what I mean is the type of British accent I teach which is kind of like a contemporary modern RP accent which you would hear in the South of England.
我将教你们两个非常重要的发音和技巧，这会让你们听起来更英式。但是我说听起来更英式，我的意思是我教的那种英式口音，那是一种你在英国南部会听到的现代标准英式口音。
It's my kind of accent, the way I speak and probably the way the majority of the South actually do speak now. It's the one you would be the most familiar with when you think of a British accent, okay.
这是我的口音，我说话的方式，也许是大多数南方人现在的说话方式。就是当你想到英国口音时，你最熟悉的一种口音。
So, these two sounds they are really important and they add that extra British into your voice. If you're not extremely good at British accent or pronunciation in general but you want to sound more British, these two sounds will do the job, okay.
这两个音真的很重要，它们会给你的发音添加额外的英国口音。如果你不擅长英式口音或一般的发音，但你想听起来更英式，这两种发音会起作用。
I want to explain why firstly. The reason I thought of this video was because the other day, I had a new student join my pronunciation course and he was from Spain.
首先我想解释原因。我之所以想到这个视频是因为前几天，我有一个新的学生加入了我的发音课程，他来自西班牙。
Now, he has a very strong Spanish accent. However, he has lived in the UK for about four years and there are some sounds which he pronounces and he's, he's picked them up from the British accent from living here, okay.
他的西班牙口音非常重。然而，他在英国生活了四年，有些发音是他从英国口音里学来的。
And one of these sounds, it's like when he pronounces it, it makes me think, "Wow, that was a little bit British. That's great." So, we're going to start with the schwa sound.
其中一个发音，当他发这个音的时候，让我不禁想：“哇，这个音有点英式，太棒了。”我们从弱央元音开始。
I've mentioned the schwa sound many times before, but I'm going to talk about one situation where you should always be using it and if you do, people will think, "Oh, that sounded a bit British." And this is when we finish a word with the schwa sound particularly with words that end in "-er".
我之前已经多次提到过弱央元音，但我要讲的是一种你应该经常使用它的情况，如果你这样做了，人们会想，“哦，这听起来有点英国腔。”那就是尤其对于以 er 结尾的词，我们会把结尾发成弱央元音。
So, a lot of you now would pronounce it just like Americans a word like "teacher". You might pronounce it as teacher/ˈtiːtʃər/.
很多人会发成美式发音，例如单词 teacher。你可能会发成 teacher/ˈtiːtʃər/。
If you do, there's nothing wrong with that, that's just the North American way of pronouncing it. If you want the British way, you need to use the schwa sound.
是的话也没错，那是北美的发音方式。如果你想发成英式发音，你需要使用弱央元音。
So, how do we pronounce the schwa sound? I want you to relax your face, relax your mouth, relax your tongue, keep everything very central.
那么，我们如何发这弱央元音呢？我想你放松脸部，放松嘴巴，放松舌头，把它们都放在中央。
Look at my mouth and try and copy me. /ə/.
看着我的嘴巴，试着跟我读。/ə/。
Deep breath. /ə/. /ə/.
深呼吸。
It's very very simple and it's easier than pronouncing something with an /r/, okay. Now, the words I'm talking about are words like "teacher", "doctor", "master", "mister".
它非常非常简单，比带着/r/音一起发要容易。例如，我现在说的词有 teacher，doctor，master，mister。
And the list goes on. Really, it's any word which finishes with "er", "re", or "or", we're going to pronounce it with an /ə/, not with an /ər/.
还不止这些。没错，任何以 er，re，或 or 结尾的词，我们都会把这个结尾发成/ə/，而不是/ər/。
And if you can do this and add it to your accent, then you have a British sound, a British technique which is happening and needs to continue happening. Now, if you combine it with the next sound I'm going to explain, it will be even better.
如果你能做到这一点，并把它添加到你的口音中，那么你掌握了一个英式口音，这是一个人们正在使用而且会继续使用的英式发音技巧。如果你把它和我将要解释的下一个声音结合起来，会更好。
But let me just explain that the schwa sound is used in many different situations. This is just one tiny technique in which we use the schwa sound.
但是让我解释一下，弱央元音在很多不同的情况下都有使用。这只是我们使用弱央元音的一个小技巧。
It's the most commonly used vowel sound in British English. Now, the next sound is the /ɒ/ sound.
它是英式英语中最常用的元音。下一个音是/ɒ/音。
And this is one of those sounds which the student I was talking about at the beginning of the lesson. He pronounces it really well.
这是我在这节课开始时提到的一个学生的发音。这个音他发得非常好。
And when it's combined with his Spanish accent, you realize that there are bits of British in there and I want you to be able to do the same. So, firstly the /ɒ/ sound, my mouth is very very round, /ɒ/, /ɒ/.
当它和他的西班牙口音结合在一起时，你会发现里面有一点英国口音，我希望你也能做到。首先是/ɒ/音，我的嘴巴张得非常圆，/ɒ/，/ɒ/。
You can't see my tongue, but it's actually being pushed back slightly and staying down, okay, it's down low and pushed back. The sound we're creating, /ɒ/.
你们看不到我的舌头，但其实它被稍微往后推，然后放下来，下来之后就向后推。我们发的是/ɒ/音。
Now, an American usually replaces this sound with an /a/ sound. So, for example, a word like "on", I say /ɒn/, an American makes it longer and makes more of an /a/ sound, /ɑːn/, /ɒn/, /ɑːn/.
美国人通常用一个/a/音来代替它。例如，单词 on，我读/ɒn/，美国人发音更长，更像/a/音，/ɑːn/，/ɒn/，/ɑːn/。
So, we want to create more of that round shape and make this sound short and snappy and quick, /ɒn/. So, let's try it with a few more words: "not", "hot", "spot", "shot".
我们的嘴巴张得更圆，发音更短促，/ɒn/。我们再来看看其他例子：not，hot，spot，shot。
Let's combine it with the schwa sound at the end. Take a look at this word finishes with "er".
我们把它和结尾的弱央元音结合起来。看看这个以 er 结尾的词。
So, remember, /ə/, "monster/ˈmɒnstə/", "monster/ˈmɒnstə/". So, this sound is very delicate, is very British, is so special, okay.
记住，/ə/，monster/ˈmɒnstə/，monster/ˈmɒnstə/。这个声音很细腻，很英伦，很特别。
It's one of those sounds which you need to master if you want that British accent. And if you combine it with the technique I taught you about the schwa sound, then you're on to a winner.
如果你想学英式口音的话，这是你需要掌握的发音之一。如果你把它和我教你的弱央元音音效结合起来，你就成功了。
If you want to learn more, you want to be understood by natives, and you want to have a clear confident pronunciation, I recommend joining my pronunciation course at etjenglish. com. So hopefully, I'll meet some of you there.
