六大连读规则,让你的语速飞起来!!!
能讲一口流利的英文是每个英文学习者的梦想,今天想跟大家分享的就是如何将你的英文讲到快的飞起。这个秘诀就是英文的连读规则(liaison),Liaison这个词来源于法语,意思是把东西捆在一起,结合在一起。
第一个规则:叫做辅音+元音型的连读。
首先我们要知道什么是辅音,什么是元音。辅音叫consonant,就是发音时气流受到阻碍的声音。那什么又是元音呢?元音叫做vowel,就是在发音的时候声音比较通畅的音。 我们第一个规则就是在同一个意群里面,如果相邻的两个词中的前一个词是以辅音结尾,后一个词如果以元音开头,这种情况下就要将辅音和元音拼起来连读。我给了一些例子,我们一起来看。
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.
第二个规则是r/re+元音型的连读。
如果前一个词是以r或者re结尾,后一个词是以元音开头的话,这种情况下r或者re不但要发出r的声音,而且还要和后边的元音拼读起来。这样一个发音规则,尤其在英式发音当中更加明显。我们来看一下这几个例子。
They’re my father~and mother. I looked for~it here~and there. There~is a football under~it.
There~are some books on the desk. Here~is a letter for you. Here~are four~eggs. But where~is my cup?
Where~are your brother~and sister?
*The black clouds are coming nearer and nearer.(nearer与and不可连读)
第三个规则是辅音加半元音的连读。
Thank~you.
Nice to meet~you.
Did~you get there late~again?
Would~you like~a cup~of tea? Could~you help me, please?
第四个规则是元音加元音的连读。 这个规则可能很多同学不知道,但大部分同学基本上每一个同学发的都是正确的,这个就是说一个词语元音结尾的话或一个词语元音开头,那这两个因往往也要自然而不间断的连读到一起。
I~am Chinese.
He~is very friendly to me. She wants to study~English.
How~and why did you come here? She can’t carry~it.
It’ll take you three~hours to walk there. The question is too~easy for him to answer.
第五个规则是当短语或者从句之间按照意群进行停顿的时候,意群和意群之间即使有两个相邻的辅音与元音出现也不可连读。
那什么是意群呢?意群就是指句子当中按意思和结构划分出的各个成分,每个成分就叫一个一群,我们来看一个例子。
Is~it a~hat or a cat?(hat与or之间不可以连读)
There~is~a good book in my desk. (book与in之间不可以连读)
Can you speak~English or French? (English与or之间不可以连读)
Shall we meet at~eight or ten tomorrow morning? (meet与 at,eight与or之间不可以连读) She opened the door and walked~in. (door与and之间不可以连读)
最后一个规则:爆破音加爆破音型或者是爆破音加摩擦音的组合
The girl in the re(d) coat was on a bla(ck) bike jus(t) now. The bi(g) bus from the fa(c) tory is full of people. Wha(t) time does he get up every morning? This is an ol(d) pi(c)ture of a bi(g) car. The ol(d) do(c)tor has a ca(t), too.
We’re going to work on a farm nex(t) Tuesday. What would you like, ho(t) tea or bla(ck) coffee?
It’s a very col(d) day, but it’s a goo(d) day. You can put i(t) down in the bi(g) garden.
I bought a chea(p) book, but it’s a goo(d) book.
Goo(d) morning, Mr. Bell. Goo(d) morning, dear.
Uncle Li’s fa(c)tory is qui(te) near to the cinema. I wen(t) there alone a(t) nine las(t) night.
-Do you know his bi(ke) number? -Sorry, I don’(t) know. The forty-firs(t) lesson is qui(te) difficult. Goo(d) luck, Lin Tao.
