「重要发音技巧」

Ok. Now let’s learn some important pronunciation tips first.
好吧。现在让我们先学习一些重要的发音技巧。
usagi1. 辅音+元音连读：
一句话中相邻的两个单词，前一个单词以辅音结尾，后一个单词以元音开始，拼读成“辅音+元音”。
文章中：
Yes, Anthony, come on in.
是的，Anthony，进来。
练一练：
Okay, just find something and get out of here.
好吧，快买一件，然后离开这里。
2. 弱读：
弱读是一种发音规律就是元音不饱满时，所有的元音都弱读成/ə/。
文章中:
I don’t want to beat around the bush so I’m just gonna come out with it.
这里的gonna后面的a是元音但不饱满，弱读为/ə/，所以gonna 读作为[ˈɡənə]。
gonna=going to
be going to
例句：
I’m going to take a shower.
= I’m gonna take a shower.
我要去洗个澡。
类似用法有：
wanna=want to
例句：
I want to go home.
= I wanna go home.
我想回家。
(注意：wants to不等于wanna所以主语是he, she, it 等第三人称单数时只能用wants to)
那么注意这种gonna和wanna都是美语中非正式的用法，如果你要写论文，报纸新闻等较为正式的文章是不可以这样使用的，必须把所有单词写完整。
