连读、加音、爆破、同化、省音、弱读、浊化
——英语常见语流现象
1. 连读:
两个相邻单词首尾音素自然的拼读在一起,中间不停顿,被称为连读。连读只发生在同一意之内,即意思联系紧密的短语或从句之内。
1)词尾辅音+词首元音,如:
Standˆup.
Notˆatˆall.
Putˆitˆon, please.
Please pickˆitˆup.
I'mˆanˆEnglish boy.
Itˆisˆanˆold book.
Let me haveˆa lookˆatˆit.
Ms Black worked inˆanˆoffice.
I called you halfˆanˆhourˆago.
2)词尾不发音r或re+词首元音,词尾r发音/r/如:
farˆaway
Hereˆis a letter for you.
Hereˆare fourˆeggs.
whereˆis my cup?
Whereˆare your brotherˆand sister?
They're my fatherˆand mother.
I looked forˆit hereˆand there.
Thereˆis a football underˆit.
Thereˆare some books on the desk.
注:当有意进行停顿时不可连读如:
Isˆit a hat orˆa cat?hat or 之间不可以连读)
Thereˆisˆa good book in my desk. book in 之间不可以连读)
Can you speakˆEnglish or French? English or 之间不可以连读)
Shall we meet atˆeight or ten tomorrow morning? meet ateight or 之间不可以连读)
She opened the door and walkedˆin. door and 之间不可以连读)
2. 加音:
在连贯的语流中,人们往往会在两个元音之间加入一个外加音帮助发音,从而更加流畅地表达意思。
1)词尾元音/ʊ,u:/+词首元音,在词尾加上一个轻微的/w/。如:
Go w away.
How w and why did you come here?
The question is too w easy for him to answer.
2)词尾元音/ɪ,i:/+词首元音,在词尾加上一个轻微的/j/。如:
I j am Chinese.
She can't carry j it.
I j also need the j other one.
He j is very friendly to me.
She wants to study j English.
It'll take you three j hours to walk there.
3. 失去爆破与不完全爆破:
1)失去爆破:爆破音+爆破音
当两个爆破音/p,b,t,d,k,g/相邻时,前一个爆破音只按其发音部位做好发音口形、形成阻碍,而不爆破出来,稍微停顿后即发出后面的辅音。前一个爆破音被称为失去爆破。失去爆破产生的原因大体上是由于省力原则造成的。如:
Kept/Blackboard/Notebook/Goodbye/September/Suitcase
Big boy
Sharp pencil
What time
You must pay.
Ask Bob to sit behind me.
She took good care of the children.
2)不完全爆破:
A)爆破音+摩擦音
爆破音/p,b,t,d,k,g/与摩擦音/f,v,s,z,ʃ,ʒ,θ,ð,r,h/相邻时,产生不完全爆破。发摩擦音时,发音器官并不形成阻碍而只形成一个很狭小的缝隙,让气流从缝隙中摩擦而出。如果一个爆破音与摩擦音相接,它爆破冲出的气流只能从狭小的缝隙中通过,这种爆破是不完全的。失去爆破产生的原因大体上是由于省力原则造成的。如:
Advance/Success
A good view
Old friends
Just then
Get through
Make sure
Night show
Keep silence.
Keep that in mind.
B)爆破音+破擦音
爆破音与破擦音/tʃ,dʒ,tr,dr/相邻时,产生不完全爆破。如:
Picture/Object
That child
Good job
Sweet dream
Great changes
A fast train
C)爆破音+鼻辅音
爆破音与鼻辅音/m,n,ŋ/相邻时:在词中,不完全爆破;在词尾,鼻腔爆破。如:
Utmost/Admit/Midnight/Certain/Button/Garden
Good morning
Good night
Start now
I don’t know
spring怎么读语音?
Just moment
A good neighbor
D)爆破音+边辅音
爆破音与边辅音/l/相邻时:在词中,不完全爆破;在词尾,舌侧爆破。如:Lately/Badly/Mostly/Friendly
A bit louder
I’d like to
Straight line
Good luck
At last
At lunch
4. 同化:
人们在说话的时往往会不自觉地让一个音受相邻音的影响,使它们变得与其相同或相似;或者两个音互相影响,变为第三个音。这两种现象被称为音的同化。同化可以发生在同一个词、复合词内或者句子相邻词之间。
1)因声带的影响而发生的同化:
A)浊辅音可变为清辅音,如:of(v→f) course,his(z→s) pen,with(ð→θ) pleasure。
B)清辅音可变为浊辅音,如:like(k→g) that。
2)因发音部位的影响而发生的同化:
A)/t/+/j/→/tʃ/。如:
Dont hurt yourself!
I’ll let you go this time.
Dont you do that again.
Its very nice to meet you.
B)/d/+/j/→/dʒ/。如:
Did your sister come?
Would you please come in?
Could you read this for me please?
You didnt like English, did you?
C)/s/+/j/→/ʃ/。如:
I miss you.
May God bless you.
We will come this year.
D)/z/+/j/→/ʒ/。如:
Heres your ticket.
I love you because you are you.
Don’t expect he tells you the truth.
5. 省音:
在快速、随便的言语中,一些音素被省略掉,被称为省音。省音能提高语速,使说话省力。在正式场合和语速慢的情况下,省音不是必须的。
1)同一单词内元音的省略,主要是非重读音节中的/ə//ɪ/,如:ord(i)n(a)ry。
2)当前一单词以辅音结尾,后一单词以/ə/开头时,/ə/常被省略,如:walk (a)way。
3)当前一单词以否定形式-n't结尾,后一单词以辅音开头时,/t/常被忽略,如:
She isn'(t) there.
I didn(t) hear you.
He can(t) believe that.
4)任何一个辅音,若后面紧跟着/h//h/可以不发音。如:
Come (h)ere!
Must (h)e /ti/ go?
What will (h)e /wili/do?
Has (h)e done it before?
Tell (h)im to ask (h)er…
5)将多个单词利用连读爆破等拼和在一起。如:
gotta(got to)
gonna(going to)
kinda(kind of)
lotsa(lots of)
gimme(give me)
6. 强读式和弱读式:
在一个句子,有些词说得又轻又快,而且较为含糊,有些词则说得又重又慢,而且较为清晰。那些说得响亮而清晰的词就是句子重音所在。实词(包括名词、实义动词、形容词、副词、数词疑问词等)一般都接受句子重音,为重读词,采用强读式虚词(包括介词、代词、连词、冠词、助动词、情态动词等功能词)一般都不接受句子重音,为非重读词,采用弱读式
6.1 一般规律:
1)弱读式只出现在句子的非重读词中。如:Pass me/mɪ/ the/ðə/ book. me、the弱读。
2)单词单独出现或在句首或句尾时,都采用强读式。如:What are you listening to/tu:/?
3)被特别强调的词,无论实词还是虚词都采用强读式。如:I am/æm/ Peter. 我就是皮特。
6.2 虚词弱读规律:
1)长音变短音,如:she/ʃi:/弱读/ʃɪ/
2)元音前面的辅音被省略,如:him/hɪm/弱读/ɪm/
3)辅音前面的元音被省略,如:am/æm/弱读/m/
4)元音一般弱读为/ə/,如:can/kæn/弱读/kən/
5)部分虚词有多种弱读式,如:would/wʊd/弱读/əd,d/
7. 浊化:
1/s/ 后面的清辅音要浊化。 如:
/k/浊化成/g/: scar/school/discussion
/t/浊化成/d/: stand/student/mistake
/p/浊化成/b/: spring/spirit/expression
2)美音中,当/t/出现在两个元音之间并且处于非重读位置的时候,/t/需要浊化成一个近似于/d/的音。这样,writer听起来和rider 的发音几乎没有区别。如:
Letter/water/better/duty/bitter/city
I got it.
Would you please pick it up?
注:/t/如果处于重读位置的话,即使在两个元音之间也不需要浊化。请比较:
