听感上:t/d 似乎”消失”了,只剩鼻音节拍。严格区分时,t+n 可出现喉塞音 /ʔn/,d+n 更常是 d 的鼻腔释放。注意在 \overset{}{} 标注中可标记为 bu\overset{[ʔn]}{\overline{tton}}
⑭ -ed 和 -s 结尾读音规则
过去式/过去分词 -ed 的三条规则:
动词结尾音
-ed 发音
例
清辅音(p/k/f/s/ʃ/tʃ 等)
/t/
jumped /dʒʌmpt/, walked /wɔːkt/
非清辅音(浊辅音/元音/鼻音等)
/d/
robbed /rɑbd/, cleaned /kliːnd/
t/d 结尾
/ɪd/
gifted /ˈgɪftɪd/, headed /ˈhɛdɪd/
名词复数/动词单三 -s 的四条规则:
单词结尾音
-s 发音
例
清辅音(p/t/k/f/θ)
/s/
books /bʊks/, laughs /læfs/
浊辅音/元音
/z/
feels /fiːlz/, lives /lɪvz/
咝音(s/z/ʃ/ʒ/tʃ/dʒ)+es
/ɪz/
watches /ˈwɑtʃɪz/, roses /ˈroʊzɪz/
以 e 结尾的无声 e
同以上规则
makes /meɪks/(k 清→s),lives /lɪvz/(v 浊→z)
在听写中遇到 -ed 或 -s 结尾时,不要被拼写迷惑,要用以上规则去判断实际读音。
⑮ s 后清辅音不送气(听感近似浊化)
当单词以 s + 清辅音(p/t/k)+ 元音 开头时,p/t/k 通常不送气。它们严格来说仍是清辅音 /p t k/,但对中文母语者听起来常接近 b/d/g:
拼写
音标字面
实际读法
stop
/stɒp/
/stɒp/(t 不送气,听感近似 d)
school
/skuːl/
/skuːl/(k 不送气,听感近似 g)
speak
/spiːk/
/spiːk/(p 不送气,听感近似 b)
student
/ˈstuːdnt/
/ˈstuːdnt/(t 不送气,听感近似 d)
教学时可以用“听起来像 b/d/g”帮助入门,但正式 IPA 仍写 /sp st sk/,不改成 /sb sd sg/。
⑯ 句子重音 (Sentence Stress)
在句子中,实词(content words) 重读,虚词(function words) 弱读:
重读(实词)
弱读(虚词)
名词(cat, book, idea)
冠词(a, an, the)
实义动词(run, eat, believe)
代词(he, she, it, them)
形容词(big, happy, beautiful)
介词(at, in, for, of)
副词(quickly, very, always)
连词(and, but, or)
否定词(not, never)
助动词(can, do, have, will)
示例对比:
I NEED to GO to the STORENOW.
人 can 去 到 the 商店 现在
(只有 NEED/GO/STORE/NOW 重读,to/the 弱读)
标注方法:在句子中用 \textbf{重读} 标注,或用大写字母表示句子重音位置。
补充笔记
> 引用块用于:词汇解释、知识点总结、发音规则说明
中文翻译紧随英文句子之后
[xxx] 方括号在 \overset{}{} 中表示实际发音
音标采用 IPA(国际音标)
