大家一起學(xué)發(fā)音:[i?]該怎么發(fā)

Video Text:

The [i?] diphthong. I've seen some sources that leave this out altogether. It's always followed by an R consonant, and these sources don't see the schwa as really having its own sound, as in the ih-uh diphthong. And I say, I admit, I agree with that. I'm putting in here though, because a lot of other sources use it as a separate diphthong: ih to uh -- schwa. Now, the first sound, ih. With many diphthongs, I find that the ih vowel, it's written as an open ih as in sit, actually in the practice of the diphthong takes on a different color. I find it to be a lot closer to the ee as in she, though the tongue is not so far forward. I would think of the first sound of this diphthong more as a relaxed ee than as a pure ih as in sit. The second sound then is the schwa, and that sound is very quick as you are already moving into the R of the consonant that follows. So in slow motion, the sound, with the R, as it is always followed by the R, would be: iiiiihhhhhh uuuuuhhhhhh rrrrrrr: here.

[i?]是一個(gè)雙元音，有些材料中認(rèn)為這個(gè)音是[i]和R音的組合，當(dāng)中的[?]音并不發(fā)聲。但是還有很多材料中認(rèn)為將它看做兩個(gè)分開(kāi)的元音：即[i]和[?]。

對(duì)于第一個(gè)音[i]，很多雙元音中，[i]這個(gè)元音寫作短音，就像sit中的[i]，但是真的念起來(lái)的時(shí)候并非如此，它更接近于she中的[i:]，雖然舌頭的位置不像發(fā)[i:]時(shí)那么靠前。其實(shí)這里的這個(gè)[i]音更像一個(gè)放松發(fā)出的[i:]而不是純粹的sit中的[i]。第二個(gè)音便是[?]，它出現(xiàn)得非常之快，剛發(fā)出你就進(jìn)入到后面的R音了。如果我們用慢動(dòng)作來(lái)念就是這樣：iiiiihhhhhh uuuuuhhhhhh rrrrrrr。
