英语音标
基础
英语音标是英语学习的重要基础。学好英语音标不仅有助于正确发音,更有助于提高听力和口语水平。下面,介绍英语音标基础知识。
一、元音音标
1. 单元音:单元音是指发音时舌头、唇、颚等肌肉不动,声音从口中流出的音。
英语单元音分为短元音和长元音。短元音的发音时间短,长元音的发音时间长。
短元音:/?/ as in cat, /e/ as in bed, /i/ as in sit, /?/ as in top, /?/ as in cup, /u/ as in put
长元音:/ɑ:/ as in car, /e?/ as in say, /i:/ as in see, /?:/ as in law, /ju:/ as in use, /u:/ as in too
2. 双元音:双元音是两个元音连读发音的音。
双元音分为浊音和清音。
浊音:/e?/ as in day, /??/ as in boy, /a?/ as in out, /??/ as in no
清音:/a?/ as in high, /e?/ as in care, /??/ as in here, /?r/ as in her
二、辅音音标
辅音音标是指发音时需要动用舌头、颚、唇等肌肉的音。
辅音音标分为清辅音、浊辅音和半辅音。
清辅音:/p/ as in pack, /t/ as in top, /k/ as in keep, /f/ as in face, /s/ as in say, /θ/ as in think
浊辅音:/b/ as in big, /d/ as in dog, /g/ as in go, /v/ as in voice, /z/ as in zoo, /e/ as in this
半辅音:/j/ as in you, /w/ as in we
三、发音要点
1. 发音时应放松口腔、唇部的肌肉。
2. 同一单词中,元音发音不同,意义也不同。如:bit /b?t/ (一点点),beat /bi:t/ (
打败)。
3. 不同文字拼写,相同音标发音相同。如:cat /k?t/ (猫),hat /h?t/ (帽子)。
4. 有些单词中,同一字母或字母组合发音不同。如:ate /e?t/ (吃),cat /k?t/ (猫),can /k?n/ (能)。
5. 辅音音标和元音音标的连读也需要注意。
以上是英语音标基础知识的简要介绍。学好英语音标需要耐心和不断练习。希望大家能够通过学习,掌握正确的英语发音,提高自己的英语水平。
