So today we're going to be looking at the two of these sounds and hopefully getting the difference to make your life a little bit easier when you speak English.

那麼今天我們就來看看這兩個音，希望能得到區別，讓你在說英語的時候更輕鬆一些。

Hello, everybody.

大家好

It's me, Elliot from E.

是我，艾略特從E。

T.

T.

J.

J.

English.

英文。

And today yes, we are looking at the on the O sound.

而今天是的，我們看的是上奧音。

Now a quick disclaimer before we begin the lesson.

現在，在我們開始上課之前，先做一個簡短的免責聲明。

As always, I am a British pronunciation teacher on I specialized in just one off many English accents you can choose which ever accent you want.

一如既往，我是一個英國發音老師，對我專門只是一個關閉許多英語口音，你可以選擇你想要的任何口音。

None of them are inferior back to the lesson.

他們都不遜色於回課。

So what actually made me decide to do this lesson about the on the oh sounds?

那麼到底是什麼原因讓我決定做這節課的上哦音呢？

But it was actually one of my students.

但其實是我的一個學生。

He was sending me one of his daily WHATS app messages, which is included in my pronunciation cause on one thing that slightly concerned me is that he was talking about he was in a bar with one of his friends, and he said When I went to the bar, I ordered a rum and cock.

他給我發了一條他每天的WHATS應用消息，其中包括我的發音原因上有一件事，我稍微關注的是，他說他和他的一個朋友在酒吧，他說當我去酒吧時，我點了一杯朗姆酒和公雞。

That's right, a rum on dcaa cock.

沒錯，是朗姆酒對DCAA雞巴的作用。

Now the issue is he didn't use the O sound on.

現在的問題是他沒有用上O音。

Now what he's done is he has ordered a rum with a side of cock.

現在他所做的就是他點了一杯朗姆酒，配上公雞。

Obviously, what my student intended to say was rum on coke.

很明顯，我的學生想說的是朗姆酒加可樂。

So we just need to get the difference between the O on the oh, sounds and just learn a few words which we can compare them with.

所以我們只需要掌握哦，音上的O的區別，只要學會幾個我們可以比較的單詞就可以了。

So, firstly, the awe sounds you'll notice first from my mouth shape.

所以，首先，從我的嘴型上，你會先注意到驚歎聲。

Oh, I'm doing a kind of round shape with my mouth.

哦，我的嘴在做一種圓形的形狀。

Okay.

好吧，我知道了

Oh, so this sound is what we would call a back open vowel so back, meaning that the tongue is towards the back of the mouth and the sound is coming from the back of the mouth on open, meaning that the mouth is quite open.

哦，所以這個聲音就是我們所說的後開元音，所以後開，意思是說舌頭是朝向嘴巴後面的，聲音是從嘴巴後面開的，也就是說嘴巴很開。

So that would indicate that the tongue is down because when we lift the tongue up, the mouth will usually close mawr on.

所以，這將表明，舌頭是向下的，因為當我們抬起舌頭，嘴通常會關閉mawr上。

When we push the tongue down, it will usually open mawr.

當我們把舌頭往下推的時候，通常會打開毛毛。

So pull the tongue slightly back into the mouth on round the mouth or Oh, oh, I feel your tongue sliding back into your mouth when you produce this sound.

所以在繞口令上把舌頭稍微拉回嘴裡，或者哦，哦，當你產生這個聲音的時候，我感覺到你的舌頭滑回嘴裡了。

So let's try it with a word.

所以我們用一個詞來試試。

Hot hot.

熱熱的。

So start with that hearts.

所以，先從那顆心開始。

Now let's compare it with the O sound.

現在我們來對比一下O音。

Now the O sound is what we would call a diff thong.

現在的O音就是我們所說的差丁字音。

A diff thong is when we combine two vowels together.

衍通是指我們把兩個元音結合在一起。

So the sound is Oh, okay.

所以聲音是哦，好的。

For example.

例如：

Go Oh, or only only So we're starting with the tongue in the middle area of the mouth.

去哦，還是隻有隻有所以我們從口腔中間區域的舌頭開始。

The mouth is kind of neutral.

嘴上說的是一種中性。

Okay, uh, on then what we're doing is we're rounding the mouth and closing it slightly.

好吧，呃，那麼我們要做的就是把嘴巴圍起來，稍微閉上。

So this means we're lifting the tongue kind of diagonally up and back on.

所以這意味著我們要把舌頭斜著抬起來，然後再放回去。

This is going to cause the mouth to round and close slightly, so oh, feel your mouth round as your tongue lifts up and back.

這會導致嘴巴圓潤，微微閉合，所以哦，當你的舌頭抬起來向後仰時，感覺你的嘴巴很圓。

Uh oh.

嗯，哦。

So now let's try only only hopefully you can pronounce the awe and oh, sounds let's quickly compare them with those two magic words.

那麼現在我們就來試試只希望你能讀出敬畏和哦，音我們快來對比一下這兩個神奇的詞。

Cock on Coke cock.

公雞對可樂公雞。

Co cop Co Kok Kok.

Co cop Co cook.

If you're still pronouncing the word coke as cock, I'm sorry.

如果你還在把coke這個詞念成cock，我很抱歉。

You might just have to change your favorite drink to a lemonade or something much easier to pronounce.

你可能要把你最喜歡的飲料換成檸檬水或者更容易發音的東西。

Now, what we're going to do is we're going to start some minimal pairs.

現在，我們要做的是我們要開始一些最小的對。

So some words which include both of these sounds on sound similar.

所以一些包含這兩個音的詞在聽起來是相似的。

Hop up.

合起來。

Remember that Hop, Aunt Ho Hop Hope a Oh, hope.

記得合，何阿姨合希望一個哦，希望。

Hope not, Andi Note.

希望不是，安迪注。

Note not Note.

注不注。

Got so again.

又得到了這樣的。

Round shaped tongue down and back.

圓形的舌頭向下和向後。

Oh, got and go to remember starting like this.

哦，得和去記得開始是這樣的。

Go on.

去吧

We're rounding the mouth.

我們在繞口令。

Goat got goat baht like a robot.

山羊像機器人一樣得到了羊銖。

Andi.

安迪

Boat bots, boats.

舟舟，舟舟。

The other thing to know about, def thongs is they're kind of in the middle of a long vowel and a short vowel, So don't make them too long.

另外需要知道的是，丁字褲是一種長元音和短元音的中間，所以不要把它們弄得太長。

Don't make them too short.

不要讓他們太短。

They're kind of just sitting in the middle.

他們算是坐在中間了。

So got goat got goat.

所以得到了山羊得到了山羊。

00 Now we're going to try some sentences.

00現在我們要嘗試一些句子。

Just toe.

走吧

Practice them and see how we can do.

實踐出真知，看看我們怎麼做。

So We hope toe hop on the boat.

所以，我們希望能跳上船。

We hope to hop on the boat.

我們希望能跳上船。

Please do not take notes.

請不要做筆記。

Please do not take notes.

請不要做筆記。

I know you've only got a goat.

我知道你只有一隻山羊。

I know you've only got a goat, so Oh, and oh, actually, quite simple, really.

我知道你只有一隻山羊，所以 哦，哦，其實，很簡單，真的。

I mean, this lesson is quite simple to explain, but it's all about practice.

我的意思是，這節課解釋起來很簡單，但這都是實踐。

Try and find some more minimal pairs.

儘量多找一些極簡的對。

Try and find some more words with the AAT sound and the O sound.

試著再找一些AAT音和O音的單詞。

Compare them, create your own sentences and start building your vocabulary with these new sounds.

比較它們，創建你自己的句子，並開始用這些新的聲音建立你的詞彙。

And of course, if you want to learn all of the sounds in my accent in a modern modified RP accent, you conjoined my British pronunciation course.

當然，如果你想學習我的口音中所有的聲音，以現代修改後的RP口音，你連帶我的英國發音課程。
