Video Text:
The [ju:] diphthong. This combines the y, y, uh-y, Y consonant sound with the oo, closed oo. Ew, ew. As you can see, the lips come in and round. The tongue also shifts. On the y, it's like that, up against the teeth, y, y, the bottom teeth, and it then shifts: yy-oo, ew. So it comes away from the front a little bit because in the oo vowel it's fattening up a little bit in the back, which means there's not as much tongue to have room to curl a bit like that against the teeth. So though it is still touching the teeth, it comes back like that. Ew, eeew.
[ju:]是一個(gè)復(fù)合元音,由輔音y, y, uh-y 連接oo構(gòu)成,發(fā)woo時(shí)口型緊縮。Ew, ew. 正如你所見,發(fā)音時(shí)嘴唇是向內(nèi)聚攏成圓形的。舌頭同樣有變化。發(fā)y這個(gè)音的時(shí)候,舌頭是這樣頂住牙齒,y, y, 是頂住下邊的牙齒,然后它開始移動(dòng):yy-oo, ew. 舌頭從口腔前部略微移開,因?yàn)樵诎l(fā)元音oo時(shí),舌頭會(huì)在口腔后部平展,也就是說舌頭卷曲起來頂住牙齒的部位會(huì)減少。所以說雖然舌頭仍然觸及牙齒,它卻是在向后移動(dòng)。Ew, eeew.
