If you first started studying English in China,
2
there's a good chance that you learned that the TR consonant cluster should be pronounced ch.
3
Well, that's not quite right.
4
In this American English pronunciation video,
5
we're going to make an important adjustment to that concept.
6
I made a video a while back explaining that the T in the TR consonant cluster can sound like a CH.
7
You'll hear native speakers do this all the time.
8
Try.
9
True.
10
But I've noticed with my Chinese students
11
that they will pronounce this cluster with just the CH and no R sound at all.
12
But the R needs to be just as strong as the CH in this consonant cluster.
13
Let's take for example the word try.
14
Now if I replace that T with the CH,
15
try, try, I get an acceptable pronunciation.
16
But if I replace it with the CH and drop the R,
17
chai, chai, then I get a different word.
18
Now, I love a chai tea latte just as much as the next person.
19
But when we're trying to use the word try,
20
the word chai is no good.
21
When I say the word chai,
22
my tongue tip is in the front of my mouth the whole time.
23
It's here for the CH,
24
ch- down here for the first half of the diphthong,
25
chai- and then the tip is still here,
26
but the front part reaches forward towards the roof of the mouth for the second half of the diphthong.
27
Chai- chai- chai- chai- So we're not getting the R.
28
The The R involves a pullback of the tongue.
29
So in order to get an R sound,
30
chr, chr, chr, it has to come back from that initial forward position for the CH.
31
Chr, chr, try.
32
It will then come back forward for the diphthong sound.
33
Tr, tr, tr, tr.
34
Another way to make sure that you're making an R sound is to watch your lip position.
35
So the lips will need to come into an even tighter circle to make the R in this cluster.
36
Let's take a look in up close and slow motion.
37
First, try with the R.
38
See how much the lips come in to make that R sound.
39
Now, chai without the R.
40
After the CH sound, the lips do not round.
41
So in the top, you have the R position after the CH,
42
and below you have just the position for the CH.
43
The top position is correct to get the R sound in the TR cluster.
44
Now we'll watch from the side to try to see the tongue position.
45
In the word CHI, the tongue is just coming down from being up for the CH position.
46
No pullback of the tongue.
47
In the word try, it's harder to see
48
that the tongue has pulled back because the lips come into a more tightly rounded position.
49
But you can see
50
that the tongue here at the end is coming forward for the diphthong from being back for the R.
51
As you practice the TR cluster,
52
slow it down and hold out the R.
53
Trrrrrrrrry.
54
Make sure that you're feeling and seeing the correct tongue position.
55
Do this over and over, drill it repetitively.
56
Eventually speed it up so that you're putting the R sound in at a normal conversational pace.
57
This is how you will turn it into habit.
58
Other words.
59
Train.
60
Trade.
61
truth, trouble, trust.
62
I hope this video has helped.

That's it, and thanks so much for using Rachel's English.

关于本节课
在本节课中,您将重点练习美式英语中的TR辅音组合的发音。大多数中国学生可能会错误地将这个组合发音为CH,而我们将纠正这种理解。通过模仿和重复口音练习,您将学会如何将R音和CH音结合在一起,以提高您的英语发音。这不仅能为您的口语带来更自然的流利度,还能帮助您在雅思口语练习上取得更好的成绩。
关键词汇与短语
- try(尝试)
- true(真实)
- chai(奶茶)
- chr(发R音时的口型)
- diphthong(双元音)
- position(位置)
- tongue(舌头)
- lips(嘴唇)
练习技巧
为了提高您的发音,建议采用“shadow speech”技巧,即跟随视频中的发音进行模仿。为了达到最佳效果,您可以尝试以下几个练习方法:
- 慢速跟读:在观看视频时,将播放速度降低,以便更好地捕捉发音细节并模仿口音。
- 注重舌头和嘴唇的位置:请仔细观察如何将舌头从CH音的位置向后拉动到R音的位置,并注意嘴唇如何收紧。
- 反复练习:要提高英语发音,建议您每天以不同的词汇进行训练,特别关注TR组合的使用。
- 记录并回听:录下自己的声音,然后与视频中的发音对比,找出差距并进行改进。
- 多与他人交流:通过小组讨论或语言交换,与他人练习发音,从而进一步巩固所学内容。
您的努力将有助于您在提高英语发音方面取得显著进展,尤其是在雅思口语练习中,TR辅音组合的正确发音将给您的表达增添更多自然与流畅感。
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。
