Hello everyone.

大家好。

It's jennifer from Charles speech with your question of the week.

我是查爾斯演講的珍妮弗，為您帶來本週的問題。

The question today is what's the difference between the short E.

今天的問題是短E之間有什麼區別。

Sound in the word met and in the word gut and the long A sound A in the word mate and gate.

在單詞met和單詞gut中的聲音，以及在單詞mate和gate中的長A音A。

So let's take a look at some of these words and listen to the differences.

是以，讓我們看一看其中的一些詞語，聽聽它們的區別。

So we have over here lot get bet met and wet.

是以，我們在這裡有很多人被押送到了這裡，並被打溼。

We're going to contrast that with the long A.

我們要把它與長A對比。

In late gate bait mate.

在晚期的門餌伴侶。

And wait.

再等等。

So what's the difference between these two sounds?

那麼，這兩種聲音之間有什麼區別呢？

Let's start with the short E.

讓我們從短E開始。

The A.

的阿。

Sound to make this sound.

聲音來發出這個聲音。

Your mouth is going to be slightly open.

你的嘴要微微張開。

You will be able to see your tongue between the top and the bottom teeth in your mouth is slightly open.

你將能夠看到你的舌頭在口腔內的上下牙齒之間是微微張開的。

Uh Uh huh.

呃......嗯。

Uh huh.

嗯哼。

My tongue is relatively flat in my mouth, the back is slightly pulled up.

我的舌頭在嘴裡相對平坦，後面稍微拉起。

But overall I think of it as more being a little bit flat.

但總的來說，我認為它更多的是有點平淡。

Uh uh Yeah for the a.

呃......是的，為A。

You can see my mouth opens more, the tip of my tongue points down in the back of my tongue, pulls up a little bit more A.

你可以看到我的嘴張得更大了，我的舌尖在我的舌頭後面往下指，再往上拉一點A。

A.

A.

My mouth closes slightly to move to more of a smiling mouth.

我的嘴微微閉上，轉為更多的是微笑的嘴。

And my tongue just kind of goes along for the ride.

而我的舌頭只是順勢而為。

My tongue is going to go from low in the front to a little bit higher.

我的舌頭要從前面的低點變成高一點。

A and the reason it gets higher is because I'm closing my mouth.

A而之所以會變高，是因為我在閉口不言。

So again the tongue just kind of moves along so let's look at the difference again we have the short E.

是以，舌頭又是一種移動，所以讓我們再看一下區別，我們有短E。

Uh huh.

嗯哼。

Uh uh Again my mouth is relatively static.

呃呃 我的嘴又是相對固定的。

It's not moving.

它沒有動。

My mouth is slightly open.

我的嘴微微張開。

And you can see the tip of my tongue between the top and the bottom teeth.

你可以看到我的舌尖在上牙和下牙之間。

Uh For the long a my mouth opens pretty wide tip of my tongue is down.

呃......我的嘴張得很開，舌尖朝下。

Um And then it is going to move up as I close my mouth.

嗯，然後在我閉上嘴的時候，它要往上移。

A.

A.

A.

A.

A skin we have.

我們擁有的一張皮膚。

Uh huh.

嗯哼。

A So let's give that a try.

A 那麼我們就試一試吧。

And some words, let's start with the short E.

還有一些話，讓我們從短E開始。

In the So we have let get bet met wet in the long a late gate bait mate.

在這樣的情況下，我們已經讓得到的賭注滿足溼在長一個晚門的誘餌伴侶。

And wait and let's contrast these.

等等，讓我們來對比一下這些。

And I'm actually going to fix this.

而我實際上要解決這個問題。

I erased my last word here.

我在這裡擦掉了我的最後一個字。

Okay so we have let late.

好了，我們已經讓遲到了。

Yeah.

是的。

Get gate bet bait.

獲取閘門賭注的誘餌。

Met mate.

遇到的夥伴。

Wet.

溼的。

Wait, let's give those all a try again.

等等，讓我們把這些都再試一下。

Let late get gate bet bait.

讓遲到的人得到門賭的誘餌。

Met mate.

遇到的夥伴。

Wet.

溼的。

And wait now if this is difficult, you can kind of break that word apart and try the sounds separately.

等一下，如果這很難，你可以把這個詞拆開，分別試一下發音。

Mm.

嗯。

Uh Let and let's break this one apart.

呃，讓我們把這個問題分開。

Who Eight.

誰八。

Mhm.

嗯。

Eight late.

遲到了8分鐘。

So when you break those sounds apart.

是以，當你把這些聲音分開時。

You can really feel how much your tongue needs to move for those vowel sounds.

你可以真正感受到你的舌頭需要為這些元音移動多少。

So one more practice.

所以再來一次練習。

Try here.

試試這裡。

Let late.

讓遲到。
