Hi everybody, it is Jennifer Tarle from Tarle Speech.

大家好，我是 Tarle Speech 的 Jennifer Tarle。

Welcome to another week of the American English Consonant Sound Masterclass.

歡迎參加又一週的美式英語輔音大師班。

This week we are talking about the M sound.

This is the first of a three-week, let's call it a mini-series in the Masterclass, for the nasal sounds in English.

這是為期三週的 "大師班 "迷你係列中的第一課，我們姑且稱之為 "大師班 "英語鼻音系列。

Nasal sounds are made with the air exiting your nose.

鼻音是空氣從鼻腔排出時發出的。

And today we have the M sound, next week we will have N, and the last week we will have the NG sound.

今天是 M 音，下週是 N 音，最後一週是 NG 音。

This is the phonetic transcription for the M sound, it is the lowercase letter M.

這是 M 音的音標，即小寫字母 M。

And we spell this sound with an M, just one M that we see in my, two M's that we see in mommy, and an MN that we would see in the word autumn.

我們用 M 來拼寫這個音，一個 M 就是 my 中的 M，兩個 M 就是 mommy 中的 M，還有一個 MN 就是 autumn 中的 M。

So we do have a silent letter, the N in this case, and then we have the word limb that is spelled with MB again, another silent letter, the B.

是以，我們確實有一個無聲字母，在這種情況下是 N，然後我們有一個用 MB 拼寫的單詞 limb，又是一個無聲字母，B。

那麼，我們該如何讓這聲音聽起來更響亮呢？

If you are listening to this on a podcast, you can head on over to YouTube to see me pronounce the sound, and also to read the presentation as I go through the class.

如果您是通過播客收聽，可以到 YouTube 上查看我的發音，也可以閱讀我在課堂上的演示。

So for the N sound, your lips are going to be closed and together, air is moving out of your nose, your tongue is just neutral in your mouth, and your voice box is on.

是以，在發 N 音時，你的嘴脣會緊閉在一起，空氣會從鼻子中流出，舌頭在口腔中保持中立，聲帶處於打開狀態。

現在，讓我們來練習一下這個聲音。

I am going to read all of these words, I want you to just listen, and then I am going to read each word you repeat after me, and then we will finish up the words by reading each word list, and then you can say the whole word list, okay, here we go.

我會讀出所有這些單詞，我希望你們聽著，然後我會讀出你們跟著我重複的每個單詞，最後我們會讀出每個單詞表，然後你們可以說出整個單詞表，好了，我們開始吧。

Mad, might, mom, maybe, machine, human, plumber, family, summer, number, home, comb, stadium, diagram, maximum, all right.

瘋狂、可能、媽媽、也許、機器、人類、水管工、家庭、夏天、數字、家、梳子、體育場、圖表、最大值、所有權利。

So repeat after me, mad, might, mom, maybe, machine, human, plumber, family, summer, number, home, comb, stadium, diagram, maximum, okay, and let's do each list, mad, might, mom, maybe, machine, human, plumber, family, summer, number, home, comb, stadium, diagram, maximum.

所以跟著我重複，瘋狂、可能、媽媽、也許、機器、人類、水管工、家庭、夏天、數字、家、梳子、體育場、圖表、最大值，好的，讓我們做每個列表，瘋狂、可能、媽媽、也許、機器、人類、水管工、家庭、夏天、數字、家、梳子、體育場、圖表、最大值。

Okay, awesome work everybody, let's finish up with some sentences.
