一、语音技能:爆破音的发音技巧
爆破音是发音器官在口腔中形成阻碍,然后气流冲破阻碍而发出的音。英语中有6个爆破音,即/p/,/b/,/t/,/d/,/k/,/ɡ/。但在某些情况下,发爆破音时,气流不必冲破阻碍,而只是发音器官在口腔形成阻碍并稍作停顿(也就是说,做出要发出这个爆破音的准备,但不要发出声来),这样的发音过程叫不完全爆破。
1./p/,/b/,/t/,/d/,/k/,/ɡ/这6个爆破音中的任何两个音素相邻时,前者发不完全爆破音,后者则要完全地、彻底地进行爆破。例如:
(1)He has a ba(d) col(d) today.
(2)You shoul(d) ta(k)e care of the children.
(3)Gla(d) to meet you.
2.爆破音/p/,/b,/t/,/d/,/k/,/ɡ/在/tʃ/,/dʒ/, /w/,/t/的前面时不完全爆破。例如:
(1)Have you read the book about tha(t) child?
(2)The thir(d) chair is broken.
3.爆破音/p/,/b/,/t/,/d/,/k/,/ɡ/在/m/,/n/,/i/,/s/的前面时不完全爆破。例如:
(1)Goo(d) morning,sir.
(2)Goo(d) night.
(3)They are very frien(d)ly to us.
