I want it. Want it. No T. Did you learn t.hat  pronunciation when you learned this word?  

我想要它。想要它。不T，你學這個詞的時候，有沒有學會t.hat的發音？

Probably not. You probably learned the wrong  pronunciation of so many words in English and it's  

可能不會。你可能學錯了很多英語單詞的發音，這就是

not your fault. It's how English is taught. It's  so frustrating you were not given the full picture  

不是你的錯。這就是英語的教學方式。它是如此令人沮喪的，你沒有得到完整的圖片。

of English pronunciation when you learned English  as a non-native speaker. Because when you learned  

的英語發音，當你作為一個非母語的人學習英語時。因為當你學會了

a new word, there was a focus on reading, writing,  and the letters, what you see not, what you hear.  

一個新詞，有一個重點，就是讀、寫、信，所見非所聞。

You have to learn totally different  rules when it comes to speaking English. 

在說英語的時候，你必須學會完全不同的規則。

Because it's not just two-year-olds who  say want without a T, in this phrase.

因為在這句話中，不僅僅是兩歲的孩子說要不要，沒有T。

By the way, there are four different  pronunciations of the T. Dropping it is  

順便說一下，T的發音有四種不同的讀法，丟掉它就是

just one of them, and we'll talk about  them all. Today, we're going to study  

僅僅是其中之一，我們將一一講述。今天，我們要學習

how my toddler speaks English. And we're going  to cover the main things you need to change,  

我的幼兒是如何說英語的。我們將涵蓋你需要改變的主要事情。

the main rules you need to know as a non-native  speaker, to correct your pronunciation, to improve  

作為非母語人士，您需要了解的主要規則，以糾正您的發音，提高您的水準。

your fluency in spoken English. And as always, if  you like this video, or you learned something new,  

你的英語口語流利程度。和往常一樣，如果你喜歡這個視頻，或者你學到了新的東西。

please give it a thumbs up and subscribe with  notifications. I'd love to see you back.  

請豎起大拇指，用通知訂閱。我很想看到你回來。

First, let me say, what's wrong with  having an accent when speaking a foreign  

首先，我要說的是，說外語的時候有口音有什麼不好呢？

language? Absolutely nothing. Accents,  human diversity, they're wonderful.  

語言？絕對沒有。口音，人類的多樣性，他們是美好的。

But if the way you speak English is getting in the  way of your communication, if you're not reaching  

但如果你說英語的方式妨礙了你的交流，如果你沒有達到

your own goals for yourself, then it's a problem.  Let's not let this be what holds you back. My son,  

你自己給自己定的目標，那就有問題了。 我們不要讓這個成為阻礙你前進的原因。我的兒子

of course, is learning English only by hearing. He  doesn't get messed up by seeing or understanding  

當然，是隻靠聽說來學習英語。他不會因為看到或理解而亂了陣腳。

letters, and how they might relate to sounds. I  recently posted a video online of a conversation  

字母，以及他們如何可能涉及到的聲音。我最近在網上發佈了一段對話的視頻

I had with him, and one of my students commented  how she noticed he was naturally doing all these  

我和他在一起的時候，我的一個學生評論說，她發現他很自然地做了所有這些事情

things it's taken her years to work on. So  she, like you, learned that this letter is  

的東西，她花了好幾年的時間去努力。所以，她和你一樣，得知這封信是

pronounced ttt-- T pronunciations, reductions,  and linking, are the three main things we'll  

發音ttt--T的發音、還原和連接，是我們要做的三件大事。

talk about in this video. Sawyer, my son,  does it all naturally. Most of my students  

在這個視頻中談論。Sawyer，我的兒子，做這一切都很自然。我的大部分學生

don't. I'll make sure you know where to go to  work on all of these things. You learned tt--  

不要我會確保你知道在哪裡去工作 在所有這些事情。你學會了...

a true T but I would say that's the pronunciation,  10 maybe 20% of the time, so most of the time,  

一個真正的T，但我會說這是發音，10也許20%的時間，所以大部分時間。

it's the wrong, less natural pronunciation. The  rest of the time, it's dropped, flapped, stopped,  

這是錯誤的，不太自然的發音。其餘的時間，它的下降，拍打，停止。

or turned into a CH. We've seen an example  of dropping the T in: I want it. I want it.

或變成了CH。我們已經看到一個例子，把T丟進去。我想要它。我想要它。

I want it.

我想要它。

He also drops it in the word just.  

他還把它落在了剛字上。

I just want it now. I just want it. It's really  common to drop the T between two consonants,  

我只是想現在。我只想得到它。兩個輔音之間掉T真的很常見。

and that's why he drops it in just. The next sound  is the W consonant. Just want it. Last summer,  

所以他才會把它落在剛。下一個音是W輔音。就是要它。去年夏天。

for example, there, also very common  to drop the T because it comes between  

例如，在那裡，也很常見的放棄T，因為它來之間的

two consonants. Last summer. I just  want it. Let's hear his phrase again. 

兩個輔音。去年夏天。我只是想要它。讓我們再聽聽他的短語。

I just want it now. Actually, just the other  day, i told my four-year-old son, Stoney,  

我現在就想要事實上，就在前幾天，我告訴我四歲的兒子，Stoney。

to brush his teeth. You know what he said? I  don't want to. I don't want to. I don't want to. 

刷牙。你知道他說什麼嗎？我不想刷牙我不想刷牙我不想刷牙

He dropped the T in want, the T in don't, the T  in to. He said that phrase with no T's. I don't  

他把 "要 "中的 "T"，"不要 "中的 "T"，"要 "中的 "T "去掉了。他說這句話的時候沒有T。我不知道...

want to. All smoothly linked together, but all Ts  dropped .i actually have a video that goes over  

想要。都順利地連接在一起，但所有的T掉了.其實我有一個視頻，去了。

N apostrophe T words, like don't. That's really  helpful. I go over all the different ways the T  

N個撇號T字，比如不要。這真的很有幫助。我介紹了T字的所有不同方式

might be pronounced in this particular word or  set of words, so check that video out here, or  

可能會在這個特定的單詞或一組單詞中發音，所以在這裡查看該視頻，或

by clicking the link in the video description. Stoney, time to brush your teeth. I don't want to. 

通過點擊視頻描述中的鏈接。斯通尼，該刷牙了。我不想刷牙 I don't want to.

Sawyer also changes the T pronunciation  in the phrase 'can you get it for me?'.  

索耶還在 "你能幫我拿嗎？"這句話中改變了T的發音。

Can you get it for me? Get it—becomes: get it,  get it, get it, linking those two words with  

你能幫我拿嗎？得到它--成為：得到它，得到它，得到它，把這兩個字和

a flap T. Get it, get it, that's very different  from ttt--, get it, get it, get it, get it.

一瓣T，得到它，得到它，這與ttt--，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它，得到它。

Let's see it again.  

讓我們再看看。

Can you get it for me? Get it. Get it. It sounds like a D between  

你能幫我拿嗎？去拿吧去拿吧這聽起來像一個D之間

vowels in American English, doesn't it? Get  it, get it. That's one of our T pronunciations,  

美式英語中的元音，不是嗎？明白了，明白了。這是我們的一個T的發音。

and it helps us speak English really smoothly,  and that smoothness, and linking between words  

它能幫助我們把英語說得很順暢，這種順暢，和單詞之間的聯繫。

is a really important characteristic of American  English, and that might be different than your  

是美式英語的一個非常重要的特點，這可能和你的

native language. If you've watched a lot of my  videos, then you're probably pretty familiar with  

母語。如果你看過我的很多視頻，那麼你可能很熟悉我的

the different T pronunciations. But if you want a  refresher, or if this idea is totally new to you,  

不同的T的發音。但如果你想複習一下，或者這個想法對你來說是完全陌生的。

i've put together a playlist that goes  over the different T pronunciations,  

我已經把一個播放列表，去了不同的T的發音。

and when you would want to use each one. Now, in this phrase: Can you get it for me?  

以及什麼時候你會想要使用每一個。現在，在這句話中，你能幫我拿嗎？

He also did an important reduction, and reductions  are another key issue you'll want to study to make  

他還做了一個重要的減持，減持是另一個關鍵問題，你要研究做出

sure that you're having more natural English  pronunciation, to focus on English sounds,  

確保你的英語發音更自然，要注重英語發音。

and how things are actually pronounced,  not words or letters. It was this word,  

以及事物的實際發音方式，而不是單詞或字母。是這個詞。

you probably learned it's pronounced for. I doubt you learned that it's pronounced fer.  

你可能學會了它的發音為。我懷疑你學會了它的發音fer。

but that's how it's pronounced most of the  time. There's a big difference between for and  fer.

但這是它的發音大部分時間。"for "和 "fer "之間有很大的區別。

Now with Sawyer here, I've slowed it down  

現在索伊爾在這裡，我已經放慢了速度

so you're not going to hear it as short, but  you'll definitely hear it's fur, and not for.

所以你不會聽出它的短處，但你一定會聽出它的皮毛，而不是為。

For-- for-- Can you get it for me? You know, I had a student in my academy once,  

為了... 為了... 你能幫我拿一下嗎？你知道，我的學院裡曾經有一個學生。

she lived in the US and she was married to an  American. She told him about the academy and  

她住在美國，她嫁給了一個美國人。她告訴他關於學院和

that she was training to change her habit  to say fur instead of for. And he said,  

說她正在訓練，要改掉說毛皮而不是說為的習慣。他說：

what? That's not how we say it. Of course, he  was wrong. We're so unaware of our own habits.  

什麼？ - 我們不是這麼說的我們不是這麼說的當然，他是錯的。我們太不瞭解自己的習慣了。

As an adult, he was also tied to the letters  F-O-R even though he himself pronounced it as:  

成年後，他也與字母F-O-R結下了不解之緣，儘管他自己的發音是。

for, for, as if it had no vowel at all. By the  way she did catch him in conversation saying fer--  

因為，因為，好像沒有元音一樣。順便說一句，她確實在談話中發現他說fer--。

and so she stopped him and pointed it out. She  knew more about his pronunciation than he did.  

於是她攔住他，指出來。她比他更瞭解他的發音。

Okay, so for becomes fr, that's a reduction,  that means a sound changes or is dropped. This  

好吧，所以對於becomes fr，這是一個減少，這意味著一個聲音的變化或下降。這個

word and so many others, we almost always reduce  them. Keep in mind, this is not bad English,  

詞和其他許多詞，我們幾乎總是減少它們。請記住，這並不是糟糕的英語。

sloppy English, lazy English, unclear English,  this is actually the most clear English, the  

馬虎的英語，懶惰的英語，不清晰的英語，其實這才是最清晰的英語，最清晰的

way all native speakers do it. Because American  English is a stress-timed language, that means a  

的方式，所有的母語使用者都會這樣做。因為美式英語是一門有壓力的語言，這就意味著一種

contrast between long and short is very important,  and reductions help us say these kinds of words  

長和短的對比是非常重要的，減法可以幫助我們說出這類詞語

very quickly. There are lots of common reductions  in English. You can learn them. You can learn the  

非常快。英語中有很多常見的還原。你可以學習它們。你可以學習

reduction. And you can train that. You can be  like Sawyer and say: for me, instead of: for me.

減少。而你可以訓練這一點。你可以像索伊爾一樣，說：為了我，而不是：為了我。

I have a playlist that goes over a lot of these  and I also have a complete set of videos dedicated  

我有一個播放列表，介紹了很多這些內容，我也有一套完整的視頻，專門用於

to reductions along with audio for training in  my online school Rachel's English Academy. If you

Now, let's talk about linking, our third topic  today. Many students like to make each individual  

現在，我們來談談今天的第三個話題--鏈接。很多同學都喜歡把每個人的

word clear and separate. But we don't have a  feeling of separation between words in English.  

詞的清晰和分離。但我們在英語中沒有詞與詞之間的分離感。

Remember, our example from Sawyer, just want--just  want-- instead of: just want, just want,  

記住，我們索亞的例子，只是想要--只是想要--而不是：只是想要，只是想要。

he dropped the T. That's because it makes it a  smoother link. Just want, just want. So we link  

他把T字去掉了，那是因為這讓它的連接更順暢。只是想，只是想。所以我們連接

words together and we want that smoothness  for that American English flowing sound.  

詞在一起，我們要的是那種美式英語流暢的聲音的流暢性。

If this is hard for you, there are some  tricks, like dropping the T in just,  

如果這對你來說很困難，也有一些技巧，比如把T丟在剛。

and I've put together a playlist that can help  you with this. And actually, reductions, like fr,  

我整理了一個播放列表，可以幫你解決這個問題。而實際上，減少，像fr。

the for reduction you just learned, these really  tie in with linking. Reductions have to be linked  

你剛才學的for reduction，這些真的是和鏈接聯繫在一起的。減法要有聯繫

to sound right. You can't say 'for me' with a  separation like that. You want: for me, for me,  

要聽起來正確。你不能說'為我'，這樣的分離。你要：為我，為我。

for me, for me. Constant flow of sound, as if  it's one word. So reductions and linking really  

為我，為我。不斷地流淌著聲音，彷彿是一個字。所以還原和鏈接真的

work together in American English. In next week's  video, we're going to do an in-depth analysis of a  

在美式英語中一起工作。在下週的視頻中，我們將深入分析一個

scene from a movie, so we can really study these  reductions in real English and how everything  

電影中的場景，所以我們可以真正研究這些真實的英語的還原，以及如何一切

links together. T pronunciations too. So be  sure to come back next week for that video.  

聯繫在一起。T的發音了。所以下週一定要回來看那個視頻。

Now, let's see that whole conversation I had  with Sawyer. What do you notice about his speech?

現在，讓我們看看我和索伊爾的談話內容你注意到他的演講內容了嗎？

By the way, here are the places  where you can follow me, where I  

順便說一下，這裡是你可以關注我的地方，在那裡我。

sometimes post things like that video, you'll  get to see short videos and photos from my life  

有時會發一些像視頻一樣的東西，你會看到我生活中的短視頻和照片。
