Liaisons of Vowel & Vowel
元音与元音的连读
如果一个单词以元音结束,下一个单词以元音开始的话,两个元音之间用一个滑音连在一起。如果单词以[əʊ]或[u:]结束,嘴巴会处于向前的位置,因此会很自然地用[w]音与下一个元音连读。而在发完[
I]后,嘴巴往回收,正好发[y]的滑音或连读。例如:
★Let's row~out to the island.
★Please throw~it in the trash.
★Mr. How~is my math teacher.
★How many rides did you go~on?
★Why wrinkle your brow~in that way?
★Put your other shoe~on, please.
