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.
87

推荐视频
上下文与背景
在这段视频中,讲者深入探讨了美国英语中的一个重要辅音音素——“停止T”(Stop T)。许多英语学习者可能不知道这个音素的存在,但它在美国英语口音中非常重要。停止T并不是一种声音,而是气流的暂停。这种现象在美式英语中相当常见,帮助大家理解如何在日常沟通中自如运用。
日常沟通的五个常用短语
- outdoors - 在讲到户外的时候要注意停止T的使用。
- fly - 与flight形成对比时,理解其发音的细微差别。
- smoothness - 美式英语追求流畅的表达。
- sound stop - 练习时注意气流的停止。
- continuous flow - 这是一种发音习惯,有助于提高英语发音。
逐步影像模仿指导
为了改善您的发音,尤其是在面对停止T这一难点时,可以遵循以下步骤进行shadowspeak训练:
- 听视频中的相关片段,确保理解停止T的概念。
- 将“outdoors”一词慢速播放,集中注意力是如何在音节之间出现没有声音的暂停。
- 练习单词“fly”和“flight”,注意感受它们之间的发音差别,尝试模仿讲者的语调和停顿。
- 在日常练习中添加这些单词,力求让发音更加流畅自如,减少停滞感。
- 使用shadowing site中的资源,跟随音频反复练习,以提高英语口语练习的效果。
通过这种方式,您不仅能够提高英语发音,还能在实际交流中更加自信。不断练习,使“停止T”自然融入您的口语中,将大大增强您的语言表达能力。
视频中的语法
说话人最常用的结构,并附上视频中的原话:
| 结构 | 视频中的用法 |
|---|---|
| 用 “might / may” 表可能 might/may + 动词 — 有可能但不确定的事 | might not even know · might fall |
| 现在进行时 am/is/are + -ing — 此刻或近期正在发生的事 | I'm talking · we're not hearing · we're comparing |
| “going to” 表将来 be going to + 动词 — 计划或明显即将发生的事 | gonna perfect · is going to help · is going to be |
| “will” 表将来 will + 动词 — 决定、承诺或预测 | You'll hear · we'll study |
什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
