鸚鵡到底是如何模仿人類說話的？ (Why parrots can talk like humans)
Intro
Hi, VoiceTubers! This is Mia. Have you ever wondered why parrots can talk like humans? We’ll go back to the topic at the end. Now, let’s see the sentence together.
Sentence In birds, and in humans, the lower respiratory system is shaped sort of like an upside-down slingshot.
Pronunciation Tips 1.Respiratory: /ˈres.pə.rə.tɔːr.i/ (1) Four parts: res-pi-ra-tory (2) The second part “pi” and the third part “ra” sound like are linked together. 2.Shaped: The voiceless sound /p/ impacts the originally voiced sound /d/ from “d.” Because of that, we can pronounce such words more easily. Therefore, the pronunciation of /d/ here is more like /t/, for /p/ is a voiceless sound. Similar examples, danced /dænst/, washed /wɑʃt/, kissed /kɪst/. 3.Sort of: Linking 4.Like an: Linking
Vocabulary 1.Respiratory (adj) 呼吸的 KK [rɪˋspaɪrə͵torɪ] IPA /ˈres.pə.rə.tɔːr.i/ Def: relating to breathing He died of a respiratory disease. 他死於一種呼吸系統疾病。
2.Slingshot (n) 投射器 KK [ˋslɪŋ͵ʃɑt] IPA /ˈslɪŋ.ʃɑːt/ Def: a Y-shaped stick or piece of metal with a piece of elastic (= material that stretches) attached to the top parts, used especially by children for shooting small stones The slingshot should hit each of the targets. 彈弓應擊中每個目標。
Outro
Parrots have natural desires to communicate. Your parrot wants to communicate with you since, for itself, there is a social bond with you. As a result, the parrot would mimic the sound they heard. That’s why parrots can talk. I’ve been to a linguistics class. The class mentioned parrots, too. The way parrots speak is mimic, but not really use grammar to construct the sentence. So they absorb this linguistic knowledge from their living environment, like by hearing people speak, on the radio or TV. Parrots are smart, right? This is the end of today’s Pronunciation Challenge. This is Mia. See you next time. Don’t forget your recording.
