英語中有很多連讀。

一、連讀

(1)“輔音+元音”型連讀

在同一個(gè)意群里，如果相鄰兩詞中的前一個(gè)詞是以輔音結(jié)尾，后一個(gè)詞是以元音開頭，這就要將輔音與元音拼起來連讀。

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”型連讀

如果前一個(gè)詞是以-r或者-re結(jié)尾，后一個(gè)詞是以元音開頭，這時(shí)的r或re不但要發(fā)/r/，而且還要與后面的元音拼起來連讀。

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?

但是，如果一個(gè)音節(jié)的前后都有字母r，即使后面的詞以元音開頭，也不能連讀。

The black clouds are coming nearer and nearer.(nearer與and不可連讀)

(3)“輔音+半元音”型連讀

英語語音中的/j/和/w/是半元音，如果前一個(gè)詞是以輔音結(jié)尾，后一個(gè)詞是以半元音，特別是/j/開頭，此時(shí)也要連讀。

Thank~you.

Nice to meet~you.

Did~you get there late~again?

Would~you like~a cup~of tea?

Could~you help me, please?

“音的同化”

—常把/d/+/j/讀成/dV/，did you聽上成了/dIdVu/，would you成了/wudVu/，could you成了/kudVu/。

(4)“元音+元音”型連讀如果前一個(gè)詞以元音結(jié)尾，后一個(gè)詞以元音開頭，這兩個(gè)音往往也要自然而不間斷地連讀到一起。

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.

(5)當(dāng)短語或從句之間按意群進(jìn)行停頓時(shí)，意群與意群之間即使有兩個(gè)相鄰的輔音與元音出現(xiàn)，也不可連讀。

Is~it a~hat or a cat?(hat與or之間不可以連讀)

There~is~a good book in my desk. (book與in之間不可以連讀)

Can you speak~English or French? (English與or之間不可以連讀)

Shall we meet at~eight or ten tomorrow morning? (meet與 at，eight與or之間不可以連讀)

She opened the door and walked~in. (door與and之間不可以連讀)

二、吞音

失去爆破

6個(gè)爆破音有3對(duì)/p/，/b/，/t/，/d/，/k/，/g/

，就是在某些情況下，只須做出發(fā)音的準(zhǔn)備，但并不發(fā)音，稍稍停頓后就發(fā)后面的音。

(1)“爆破音+爆破音”型

做好這個(gè)發(fā)音的姿勢(shì)，稍做停頓后即發(fā)后面的爆破音。

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.

(2)“爆破音+摩擦音”型如果前面是爆破音，其后緊跟著某些摩擦音（如/f/，/s/，/W/，/T/等），那么前面那個(gè)爆破音僅有十分輕微的爆破，而后面那個(gè)摩擦音則要完全爆破。

Goo(d) morning, Mr. Bell.

Goo(d) morning, dear.

.

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.
