1
I'm excited for you because in this video, you're gonna perfect one of the main consonant sounds in the American English accent,
2
and it's a sound you might not even know about.
3
I'm talking about the stop T.
4
The trick is, it's actually not a sound.
5
There's no sound.
6
The air stops, and that's why it's called a stop T, but it's different from leaving the T out.
7
And it's easy to hear when we slow it down.
8
Listen to this.
9
The word is outdoors and it's in slow motion.
10
You'll hear two separate distinct parts.
11
Outdoors.
12
Let's look at the volume of the word.
13
outdoors.
14
Do you see this blank spot?
15
No sound.
16
That's the stop of air, the stop T.
17
Outdoors.
18
Outdoors.
19
So if this stop T is no sound, isn't that the same thing as no T?
20
And if that's true, what's the difference between fly, which has no T, and flight,
21
that ends in a stop T but has all the same sounds.
22
By the way, this is the symbol for the stop T in the International Phonetic Alphabet.
23
Fly.
24
flight They don't sound the same, do they?
25
But we're not hearing a tt sound.
26
We're not hearing that release flight.
27
Flight.
28
There's no T, but it sounds different from fly, which has the same sounds but no T.
29
Let's compare them again.
30
Fly.
31
flight fly flight.
32
So the difference is in how the sound before the T sounds, in fly.
33
Fly.
34
Fly.
35
Pitch goes up and then it comes back down.
36
Fly.
37
It sort of tapers off.
38
But in the word flight, flight.
39
The sound has an abrupt stop.
40
It doesn't have that falling or tapering off.
41
Flight.
42
fly That abrupt stop is the stop T.
43
Let's listen to a couple more pairs.
44
Sue.
45
Sue.
46
DAY J How do we make this stop of air and why not make a full 't'?
47
T sound.
48
The thing about American English is we love smoothness.
49
Everything links together in a flow of continuous sound.
50
That's one of the characteristics of American English, but tt isn't very smooth.
51
It's a stop of air, tt, and a release of air with some energy.
52
So the stop T came about where we skip the tt, release part, to make our speech more smooth.
53
We stop the air, but then we just go into the next sound without tt, the release.
54
Take for example the word fitness.
55
fitness -ness F consonant, ih vowel, a stop, fit, Then the end sound.
56
fitness.
57
Fitness.
58
To stop the air, I cut it off in my throat at the vocal cords.
59
The tongue can be in position for the T, but it doesn't have to be fit The air is stopped there.
60
Ness fitness.
61
Fitness.
62
Here are a couple more words with the stop T in the middle.
63
Hear the stop.
64
Then the next sound.
65
Outlast.
66
partner Shut down.
67
When do you make a stop T?
68
Most Americans turn a T into a stop T in two cases: when the next sound is a consonant, like in 'shutdown' or 'fitness'.
69
Also at the end of a thought group or sentence.
70
For example, he's late.
71
Late not 'lay'.
72
He's late.
73
We also make a T a stop T at the end of the word when the next word begins with a consonant, like in the phrase, not now.
74
Not now.
75
That abrupt stop, that's the stop T.
76
Not now.
77
With a stop T, you don't hear 't'.
78
That crisp, true tea that you hear in, for example, attain.
79
Attain.
80
A true T has its place, but not in the words we'll study here.
81
Now, you'll hear and see a whole bunch of words up close
82
and in slow motion with a stop T in the middle.
83
Then, there's a section where we're comparing a stop T with a word that's the same but with no T sound, like in fly.
84
Flight.
85
This is going to help you really understand this sound, but nothing is as helpful as repeating out loud.
86
So I really encourage you to do that with both the slow motion and regular paced words.

אוצר מילים והערות הגייה לשיעור הזה

שיעור הדיבור הזה ברמה B1 מבוסס על הסרטון “American English Pronunciation: The Stop T”. המילים שחוזרות הכי הרבה: sound, fly, word, flight, fitness. בסרטון הזה יש 239 משפטים ו-1115 מילים לתרגול Shadowing. הדיבור נמשך 15:10. הדובר מדבר לאט, כ-74 מילים בדקה, כך שיש זמן לחקות כל צליל. רק 75% מהמילים נמצאות בין 3,000 המילים הנפוצות ביותר באנגלית, כך שאוצר המילים מאתגר.

אוצר מילים מרכזי בסרטון הזה

15 המילים המתקדמות ביותר בסרטון, עם ההגייה והמשמעות שלהן:

משפטים שכדאי לחזור עליהם

משפטים קצרים ושלמים מהסרטון שאפשר להשתמש בהם בשיחה יומיומית:

  • You'll hear two separate distinct parts.
  • Let's look at the volume of the word.
  • Do you see this blank spot?
  • We're not hearing that release flight.
  • Let's listen to a couple more pairs.

דקדוק בסרטון הזה

המבנים שהדובר משתמש בהם הכי הרבה, עם המילים המדויקות מהסרטון:

מבנהבסרטון
אפשרות עם “might / may” might/may + verb — משהו שיכול לקרות, אך לא בטוחmight not even know · might fall
הווה ממושך (Present continuous) am/is/are + -ing — משהו שמתרחש כרגע או בסביבה הקרובה לזמן הזהI'm talking · we're not hearing · we're comparing
עתיד עם “going to” be going to + verb — תכנון לעתיד או משהו שנראה שעומד לקרותgonna perfect · is going to help · is going to be
עתיד עם “will” will + verb — החלטה, הבטחה או ניבוי לגבי העתידYou'll hear · we'll study

הגייה ששווה לשים לב אליה

הדובר משתמש ב-19 קיצורים וצורות מקוצרות, כמו don't, we're, you're. אמרו אותם בצורה הקצרה, כפי שאתם שומעים אותם.

  • הצלילים של “sh” ו-“zh”: catfish /ˈkætfɪʃ/, repetition /ˌɹɛp.əˈtɪʃ.ən/, notification /ˌnoʊtɪfɪˈkeɪʃn̩/
  • מילים ארוכות — שימו לב להטעמה: characteristic /ˌkæɹ(ə)ktəˈɹɪstɪk/, repetition /ˌɹɛp.əˈtɪʃ.ən/, notification /ˌnoʊtɪfɪˈkeɪʃn̩/, continuous /kənˈtɪn.juː.əs/

צלילים שדוברי עברית מתקשים בהם:

  • /æ/ — פתוח יותר מה-“אֶ” העברית, לא כמו “a” ב-“cup”: outlast /ˌaʊtˈlæst/, catfish /ˈkætfɪʃ/, catnap /ˈkætˌnæp/, cutback /ˈkʌtbæk/, flatness /ˈflætnəs/
  • /r/ — הלשון לא נוגעת בשום מקום, לא ה-“ר” הגרונית: abrupt /əˈbɹʌpt/, footbridge /ˈfʊtˌbɹɪd͡ʒ/, outgrow /ˌɑʊtˈɡɹoʊ/, outlier /ˈaʊtˌlaɪə(ɹ)/, compartment /kəmˈpɑɹtmənt/
  • עיצור קולי בסוף מילה — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ בלי להפוך אותם לאטומים: footbridge /ˈfʊtˌbɹɪd͡ʒ/, outbid /aʊtˈbɪd/, outdated /aʊtˈdeɪtɪd/, cord /ˈkoɹd/, subscribe /səbˈskɹaɪb/

איך לתרגל עם הסרטון הזה

  1. הקשיבו לכל הסרטון פעם אחת בלי לדבר, ורשמו את המילים שאתם לא מכירים.
  2. תרגלו Shadowing משפט אחר משפט במהירות רגילה, וחזרו על כל משפט עד שהקצב שלכם תואם את הדובר.
  3. הקליטו את עצמכם והשוו למקור, תוך תשומת לב למילים כמו consonant, slay, flute.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
