過去簡單式

I made a mistake. Years ago, I made a video  about ED ending verbs, an accent training video,  

我犯了一個錯誤。幾年前，我做了一個關於ED結尾動詞的影片，一個口音訓練影片。

I went over the rules. But not how Americans  actually say these words in sentences. Don't  

我講了一遍規則。但不是美國人在句子中到底怎麼說這些詞。句子中的這些詞是怎麼說的

祈使句型

make the same mistake I made. There are rules but  when it comes to accent training, you need to know  

重蹈我的覆轍。規矩是有的，但說到口音訓練，你要知道。

how Americans actually pronounce these ED endings  in various situations, in various sentences.    

美國人在不同的情況下，在不同的句子中，如何實際發音這些ED的尾音。    

Sometimes the ED ending is completely dropped. So  there's a good chance you're over pronouncing the  

有時候，ED的結局是完全放棄的。所以很有可能是你發音過重。

ends of these words. With this fix, you'll sound  more natural and understand Americans better. And  

這些詞的結尾。有了這個固定的方法，你會聽起來更自然，更能理解美國人。而且

you'll have an easier time speaking english.  We're going to go to youglish and look through  

你會有一個更容易的時間 說英語。  我們要去YOUGLISH，並通過看

tons of examples together, so you know you're  getting what native speakers actually do.    

大量的例子在一起，所以你知道你得到的是母語人士實際做的事情。

There are very few rules in American English  pronunciation that don't have a lot of exceptions.  

美式英語發音中很少有規則，沒有很多例外。  

But there are actually some useful rules when  it comes to ED endings. We'll go over these,  

但其實在ED結局的時候，也有一些有用的規則。我們就來介紹一下這些。

but first, I just want to point out that a  lot of the most common verbs are irregular,  

但首先，我只想指出，很多最常見的動詞都是不規則的。

which means the past tense doesn't add an ED. I  do becomes I did, I go becomes I went, and so on.

也就是過去式不加ED。I do變成I did，I go變成I went，以此類推。

If you're at this level of english, you already  know a lot of these. And you probably learned  

如果你的英語水平達到這個程度，你已經知道很多這些了。而且你可能學會了

something wrong about the regular past  tense, the pronunciation of ED endings.

常規的過去時，ED尾音的發音有問題。

There are three rules. The first one is: if the  sound before the ED ending is unvoiced, then the  

有三個規則。第一條是：如果ED結尾前的聲音是無聲的，那麼在

EDending becomes a T. Worked, for example. The  K sound is unvoiced. Kk-- that means only air  

比如EDending變成了T.Worked。K音是不發聲的。Kk--那就意味著只有空氣

makes the sound, not a vibration of the vocal  cords, kk--. So for an unvoicED ending the ED is  

發出聲音，而不是聲帶的振動，kk--。所以對於一個無聲的結尾來說，ED是。

also unvoiced, tt-- tt-- the T sound is unvoiced.  Worked. Worked. You probably learned that. Worked.  

也是無聲的，tt--tt--T音是無聲的。  工作了工作。你可能學會了。工作。  

And you learned that pronunciation with that true  T. Okay, let's go to Youglish where we can hear  

你學會了那個真正的 "T "的發音 好了，讓我們到Youglish去，在那裡我們可以聽到

some Americans saying this word, worked, with that  tt-- T sound following the rules of pronunciation. 

一些美國人在說這個詞的時候，工作了，用那個tt--T的音按照發音規則。

We're going to do a search on the phrase  'worked for', worked for, in American English.

我們要對美式英語中的'working for'，working for這個詞進行搜索。

So then one of the two adults  who worked for the program said-- 

於是，兩個為項目工作的成年人中的一個說... ...。

Worked for the program. Wait, I didn't hear  that. Did you? I didn't hear worked for the  

為這個項目工作等等，我沒聽到。你聽到了嗎？我沒有聽到工作的

program. I didn't hear that T: ttt--- I heard  work for the program. Let's listen again. 

程序。我沒聽到T：ttt----我聽到的是節目的工作。我們再聽一遍。

Let's try it in slow motion. If we  slow it down here, do we hear the T? 

我們用慢動作試試如果我們在這裡放慢速度，我們能聽到T嗎？

Two adults who work for the program said-- Work for the, work for the, work for the.

兩位為項目工作的大人說--為工作而工作，為工作而工作。

There's no T, it sounds like the present tense  work for. I work for them. But it's past tense,  

沒有T，聽起來像是現在時態的工作。我是為他們工作的。但這是過去式。

and we know that because she's telling a story  about something that happened to her in the past.

我們知道這一點，因為她講的故事 關於發生在她過去的事情。

All right, well, let's listen to another  one. Are we hearing the T in worked?

好吧，好吧，讓我們聽聽另一個。我們聽到的是T在工作嗎？

Okay, there he said: worked. Let's  listen to that in a full sentence.

好，他說的是：起作用了。讓我們聽一聽這句話的完整內容。

Oh no! When he put the word in the  sentence, he dropped the T again.  

哦，不！當他把這個詞放在句子裡的時候，他又把T掉了。  

What's going on? Well, in American  English, it's pretty common to drop a T  

怎麼了？在美式英語中 掉個T是很常見的事

when it comes between two consonants. This  happens for example in the word exactly.  

當它出現在兩個輔音之間時。例如，在 "究竟 "一詞中就會出現這種情況。  

Most Americans won't say that T. Exactly.  They'll say: exactly, dropping the T sound.

大多數美國人不會說那個T，沒錯。  他們會說：確切地說，去掉T音。

Or on the phrase: just because, most Americans  will drop that T because it comes between two  

或者在這句話上：只是因為，大多數美國人都會放棄那個T，因為它在兩個

consonants. And we'll say: just because--  jus be-- right from the S to the B with no T.

輔音。我們會說：只是因為... ... jus b...

So this can happen with these  ED endings. As we go through  

所以這些ED的結局也會出現這種情況。當我們通過

all the rules for ED endings in this video,  we're going to look at not just the rules,  

ED結局的所有規則在這個視頻中，我們要看的不僅僅是規則。

but what actually happens when Americans speak.  So you're getting effective accent training.

但美國人說話時實際發生了什麼。  所以你要進行有效的口音訓練。

So rule one was: unvoiced ending,  ED is pronounced like a t. Tt--

所以規則一是：無聲結尾，ED的發音像t，Tt--。

Rule two: if the ending of the  word in the infinitive is voiced,  

規則二：如果不定式中的詞尾是有聲的。

the ED ending will also be voiced, which is a D.

ED結局也會有聲音，這是一個D。

Let's go to Youglish to find some examples.  We'll look at the phrase: opened the--

我們去優衣庫找一些例子。  我們來看看這句話：打開了... ...

Oh no, it happened again. Opened the door--  became open the door, with no D sound,  

哦不，又發生了。開門--變成了開門，沒有D音。

even though it was in the past  tense, even though in english,  

it would absolutely be written with that  ED ending. Let's listen in slow motion.

絕對會寫成那個ED的結局。讓我們用慢動作來聽。

Nope. No d. We'll talk more about this  D later but, for now, let's go and look  

不，沒有D。我們稍後再談這個D 但現在，讓我們去看看。

at the third rule for ED endings. If the  final sound is D or T, the ED ending adds  

在ED結尾的第三條規則。如果最後的音是D或T，ED結尾就會加上

not just an extra sound like ttt or ddd, but an  extra syllable. You can think of this as being IH  

不僅僅是一個額外的音，比如ttt或ddd，而是一個額外的音節。你可以認為這是IH

as in sit or schwa plus D. And it's  said very quickly, it's unstressed.

如坐或分音加D，而且說得很快，是不緊張的。

So need becomes needed. That last syllable,  

所以，需要變成了需要。最後一個音節。

always unstressed, said quickly.  Needed, ded ded ded. Needed.

始終不緊張，說得很快。  需要的，獻上獻上。需要的，需要的。

So we're learning these three rules. Worked,  opened, and needed. And we're also learning  

所以我們要學習這三個規則。工作了，打開了，需要了。而我們也在學習

how these endings might change when part of a  sentence. Let's go into more detail about rule  

當這些結尾成為一個句子的一部分時，這些結尾如何變化。讓我們來詳細瞭解一下規則

one. ED is T after an unvoiced sound. These are  all of the unvoiced sounds in American English.  

一。ED是T在不發聲的音後。這些都是美式英語中的不發聲音。  

But we've already said that T goes with rule  three. Also there are no words that end in the H  

但我們已經說過，T與規則三的搭配。同時也沒有以H結尾的詞。

sound. Plenty of words that end in the letter  but none that end in the sound that I know of,  

音。以字母結尾的單詞很多，但據我所知，沒有一個以音結尾的。

so for our ending sound for rule one, we  have: ch-- ff-- kk-- pp-- ss-- sh-- and th--

所以對於規則一的結尾音，我們有： ch... ff... kk... pp... ss...

For all of the words in this category, if the  ED word is at the end of the sentence, you will  

對於這一類的詞，如果ED詞在句子的末尾，你就會有

pronounce that T. How did you get there? I walked.  Walked. With a light release of the T sound. For  

你是怎麼到那裡的？我走路去的  走著去的輕輕的釋放T的聲音。對於

all of the words in this category, if the ED word  is linking into a word that begins with a vowel  

這一類中的所有單詞，如果ED單詞連接到一個以元音開頭的單詞中的話

or diphthong, you will lightly release the T into  that word, connecting the two words, for example,  

或雙音，你會輕輕地把T放進那個字裡，把兩個字連接起來，比如。

walked a lot, walked a lot, walked a--  tuh tuh tuh. The T linking into the schwa.

走了很多，走了很多，走了------嘟嘟嘟。T連接到schwa。

But if the next begins with a consonant,  many times, a native speaker will drop  

但如果下一個音是以輔音開頭的，很多時候，母語人士就會放棄掉

the T sound. Let's look at each of the  possibilities. We'll start with the CH  

的T音。讓我們看看每一種可能性。我們先看CH

like in the word watched, in the phrase:  I watched the best movie last night.  

像在watched這個詞中，在一句話中：我昨晚看了最好的電影。  

I watched the best-- watch the best--  I watched the best movie last night.

我看了最好的--看了最好的--我昨晚看了最好的電影。

Now let's play me saying that phrase in slow  motion, you won't hear a T: I watched the best  

現在讓我們用慢動作播放我說這句話，你不會聽到T：我看了最好的

movie last night. To fully pronounce the  T, it would sound like this: watched the,  

昨晚的電影。如果要完整地讀出T的發音，應該是這樣的：看了。

watched the. I watched the best movie last  night. I watched the best movie last night.  

看了。我看了最好的電影昨晚。我看了最好的電影，昨晚。  

And that's just not as natural as: I watched  the best movie last night. Dropping the T.

而這只是不如自然。我昨晚看了最好的電影丟掉T。

Now, do you have to drop the T? Will every  American always drop the T between two consonants?  

現在，你一定要去掉T嗎？每個美國人都會在兩個輔音之間掉T嗎？  

No. I'm sorry. This is one of the things  where sometimes Americans will do it,  

不，我很抱歉。這也是美國人有時會做的事情之一。

and sometimes they won't, but just  knowing about it is going to help you  

有時他們不會，但只要知道它是會幫助你的

understand what's happening in  American English conversation.

理解美式英語對話中發生的事情。

And you're going to hear a lot of examples  in this video that will help you feel more  

在這個視頻中，你會聽到很多例子，這將幫助你感到更多的

comfortable dropping the T in these ED ending  words so that you can sound more natural too.

在這些ED結尾詞中自如地去掉T，這樣也能讓你聽起來更自然。

We're going to go to youglish and we're going  to listen to two people saying the phrase:  

我們要去Youglish，我們要聽兩個人說這句話。

watch the-- the, the first time, you'll  hear a T dropped, no T at all, and then not.

看... 第一次，你會聽到一個T掉了，沒有T，然後不。

Watched the original-- I didn't hear a  T there. Let's listen in slow motion.

看了原版... ... 我沒有聽到一個T。讓我們用慢動作來聽。

Okay, no T. Here's an example though where  there's a clear T in the phrase 'watched the'.

好吧，沒有T，不過這裡有一個例子，'看了'這句話裡有明顯的T。

Watched the-- so this one can go either  way. The thing you don't want to do is  

我看了... 所以這個人可以選擇任何一種方式。你不希望做的事情是：

drop the T but then not connect it to the  next word, you do want to connect them.   

丟掉T，但又不把它和下一個字連接起來，你確實想把它們連接起來。   

You can only get by with dropping that T if you  connect. But even when we say this T, remember,  

只有連接好了，你才能過掉這個T。但即使我們說這個T，也要記住。

it's not tt-- watched. It's got less energy than  that. Watched ttt--- watched the-- a very light T.

它不是Tt -- 看著。它的能量比這還小。看了tt---看了---一個很輕的t。

Next, the unvoiced sound f. Let's link it into  a vowel. Stuffed a-- stuffed a-- stuffed a-- 

接下來是不發聲的f，我們把它連成元音。填充a... 填充a... 填充a... 填充a...

Light true T connecting. Let's look at stuffed  the-- where the next sound is a consonant. I  

光真T連接。我們來看看塞入的the--------其中下一個音是輔音。I

stuffed the blanket into the bag. Stuffed the-- I  went to Youglish and I heard both pronunciations,  

把毯子塞進袋子裡塞進... 我去看了Youglish，聽到了兩種發音。

with the light T release and then also dropped.  Let's listen to some. Here, it's dropped.

與輕T發佈，然後也掉了。  我們來聽一些。在這裡，它的下降。

I'm not sure uh if you guys stuffed  the box. Stuffed the-- stuffed the--

我不知道呃，如果你們塞滿了盒子。塞滿... 塞滿...

The k sound, like in kicked, I  kicked it, linking into a vowel,  

k音，就像kicked中的k，我踢了它，連成一個元音。

we do a light T release. Kicked it-- ttt--- when  the next sound is a consonant like kicked the--  

我們做一個輕的T釋放。踢了... ... ttt... 當下一個音是輔音，比如踢了...

I kicked the ball. This can go either  way. Here's an example where it's dropped.

我踢了球這可以有兩種情況。這裡有一個例子，它的下降。

But I want to say I listened to about 50 samples  on Youglish of 'kicked the' and I only found one  

但我想說的是，我在Youglish上聽了大約50個 "kicked the "的樣本，我只發現了一個。
