英语发音中的连读和加音现象
连读的条件
相邻的两词在意义上必须
密切相关,
同属一个意群。
连读所构成的音节一般都不重读,<
/p>
只需
顺其自然地一带而过,不可读得太重,也不可吞音。
(
连读符号:
~)
连
读现象只出现在意群内部,意群与意群之间的两个相邻单词即使符合上面所讲的两个条
件
,
也不连读。
如:
I hope
it'll get a little warmer
.
这个句子中的
hope it
就不连读
为
/hupit/
,
因为主句
I
hope
是一个意群,后面的从句是另一个意群。
(1)“
辅音
+
元音
p>
”
型连读
在同一
个意群里,
如果相邻两词中的前一个词是以辅音结尾,
后一个词
是以元音开头,
这就
要将辅音与元音拼起来连读。
I’m an English boy.
It is an old book.
Let me
have a look at it.
Ms Black worked in
an office last~yesterday.
I called you
half an hour ago.
Put it on, please.
Not at all.
Please pick it
up.
(2)“r/re+
元音
”<
/p>
型连读
如果前一个词是以
-r
或者
-re
结尾,后一
个词是以元音开头,这时的
r
或
re<
/p>
不但要发
/r/
,而
且还要与后面的元音拼起来连读。
有两种,一种是前一个
单词最后一个字母为
r
,另一种
是最后
一个字母不为
r
,是
intrusiv
e r
例如
the idea~
of
Over and over again
r
伦
r
re
She is going to major in English.
IS your hometown far away?
Don’t go out after eight.
There are nine all together
.
They’re new to the work after
all.
Where are you staying?
Peter isn’t here yet.
It’s going to clear up soon.
Both my father and mother are coming
tonight.
They’ve been there for an
hour
.
The author
is going to give a talk.
Did you see
the car at the door?
Was Susanna in
last night
?
This
is Beta Engineering.
Give me an example
of Formula A.
注意:如果一个音节的前后都有字母
r
,即使后面的词以元音开头,也不能连读。
例如:
The black clouds are
coming nearer and nearer
.
(
p>
nearer
与
and
不可连读)
(3)“
辅音
+
半元音
”
型连读<
/p>
英语语音中的
/j/
< br>和
/w/
是半元音,如果前一个词是以辅音结尾,后一个
词是以半元音,特别
是
/j/
开头,此
时也要连读。
Thank you.
Nice to meet you.
Did you
get there late again?
Would you like a
cup of tea
?
Could
you help me, please?
(4)“
元音<
/p>
+
元音
”
型连读
此种连读不明显
< br>如果前一个词以元音结尾,
后一个词以元音开头,
这两个
音往往也要自然而不间断地连读到
一起。
这种连读不能把辅音<
/p>
w
或者
j
发得太
重,
否则会显得很傻,
但是不发这两个辅音的话
又会很难念得顺口。元音音素与元音音素的连读发生的情况比较少
,
一般是
[i:]
或
[u:
]
和其它
元音音素的连读,同时伴随着音变。
< br>
如果前一个词是由元音
[u]
结尾,下一个词由元音开头,那么,在
[u]
后面加上一个辅音
[w]
如果前一个词是由元音
[i]
结尾,下一个词由元音开头,那么,在
[i]
< br>后面加上一个辅音
[y]
do
(
w
) any
Just do
(
w
) it.
see
(
j
) us
hurry
(
j
)
up
。
Go (w) away.
I (
j
) am Chinese.
He (
j
) is very
friendly to me.
She wants to study
(
j
) English.
How
(
w
) and why did you come
here?
She can’t carry
(
j
)it.
It’ll take
you three (
j
) hours to walk
there.
The question is too
(
j
) easy for him to
answer
.
(5)
以辅音结尾的单词
+ h
开头的单词
h
不发音,与前面的辅音连读。
轻辅音
[h]
的连
读
,
如果前一个单词以辅音音素结尾
,
后一个单词的读音以轻辅音音素
[h]
开
头,语速较快时,
h
不发音
例如:
What
wil(l he) do? [wili]
Ha(s he) done it
before? [zi]
Mus(t he) go? [ti]
Should he….? [di]
Tell him to ask her
….
[li]
Lea(ve him). [vim]
For him [rim]
(
连读这个词,会发现和
forum
很相似
)
(
6
)“
辅音
+
辅音
”
型连读
辅音音素与辅音音素的连读发生的情况比较少
,

[r]
[w][j]
等的连读,注意发生
的音变。
Part one.
You must remain
in bed for two days.
David read the
letter again and again.

以
ng
结尾读
[
n
]
的单词,如果后面紧跟以元音音素开头的单词,发生连读时
,中间加一
个音素
[
g
]
。

[rin gim]
(辅音
h
p>
又没了)
