英语连读和弱读的发音规则
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,只需顺其自然地一带而过,不可读得太重,也不可音。(连 读符号:~) (1)“辅音+元音”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”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 不 但要发/r/,而且还要与后面的元音拼起来连读。 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 1 Where~are your brother~and sister 但是, 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。 The black clouds are coming nearer and nearer.(nearer 与 and 不可连读) (3)“辅音+半元音”型连读 英语语音中的/j/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 “音的同化” —常把/d/+/j/读成/dV/,did you 听上成了/dIdVu/,would you 成了/wudVu/, could you 成了/kudVu/。 (4)“元音+元音”型连读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。 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)当短语或从句之间按意群进行停顿时,意群与意群之间即使有两个相邻的辅 音与元音出现,也不可连读。 2 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) 失去爆破 6 个爆破音有 3 对/p/,/b/,/t/,/d/,/k/,/g/ 失去爆破,又叫不完全爆破,就是在某些情况下,只须做出发音的准备,但并不 发音,稍稍停顿后就发后面的音。 (1)“爆破音+爆破音”型 6 个爆破音【t、d、k、g、p、b】中的任意 2 个相临时,前一个爆破音会失去爆 破,即由相关的发音器官做好这个发音的姿势,稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。 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.

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,其后紧跟着某些摩擦音(如/f/, /s/,/W/,/T/等) ,那么前面那个爆破音仅有十分轻微的爆破,而后面那个摩擦 音则要完全爆破。 3 6 个爆破音有 3 对/p/,/b/,/t/,/d/,/k/,/g/失去爆破,又叫不完全爆破, 就是在某些情况下,只须做出发音的准备,但并不发音,稍稍停顿后就发后面的 音。 (1)“爆破音+爆破音”型 6 个爆破音中的任意 2 个相临时,前一个爆破音会失去 爆破, 即由相关的发音器官做好这个发音的姿势, 稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。 The girl in the re(d) coat was on a bla(ck) bike jus(t) now.
