美式发音和英式发音区别

英式发音和美式发音的区别 The distinction between GA&RP

1. 美式发音的r 化音：当字母r 出现在单词的元音字母组合中时，北美英语会出现独特的卷舌音。

far car large charge smart dear clear fear

cheer here air dare pear their where for

more door pour before sure poor tour cure

her turn learn word first fire tired higher

liar buyer hour flour shower power tower destroyer

employer

2. 英语中的元音[a:] 在用于[f] ，[w], [s] 或鼻音前时，美语发为[æ] 。但在字母组合-lm 前发音不变仍为[a:] 。

Read the following passage ：

After Charles had left the country, he started to farm in Derbyshire. This was different from marching past a sergeant.

“I can’t play cards now,” thought Charles. “I can’t go to dances, nor laugh with my comrades-in-arms. But I shan’t break my heart,” he laughed. “I have a car, and life is sweet and calm.”

3. 美音中[t] 的变化：[t] 在单词中间和[ə] 、[i] 相连时会发生弱化，变成介于[t] 和[d] 二者之间一个比较模糊的音。
