大家好，我是來自 Tarle Speech 的珍妮弗。

現在進行式

We are talking about the short I sound today in this American English Sounds Master Class.

今天，我們將在 "美式英語發音大師班 "中討論短 I 音。

動名詞

So I am coming to you every week this year and teaching you how to pronounce all of the consonant sounds.

是以，今年我每週都會來教你們如何發所有輔音。

Those are all finished and posted, so check out the playlist at YouTube at Tarle Speech for those.

這些都已完成併發布，請查看 YouTube 上 Tarle Speech 的播放列表。

Now we are into the vowel sounds and we are talking about the short vowel sounds.

現在，我們開始學習元音，而且是短元音。

I am teaching the vowel sounds the way that we teach reading in the U.S., short versus long.

我是按照美國閱讀教學的方法來教元音的，即短音和長音。

I work with a lot of parents out there who are new to the U.S., your kids are now in American schools and this whole reading thing is a little confusing, so this should help you.

我和很多初到美國的家長一起工作，你們的孩子現在在美國學校上學，整個閱讀過程有點混亂，所以這應該對你們有所幫助。

This sound that we are talking about today, the short I sound, is very, very common.

我們今天討論的這個音，即短 I 音，非常非常常見。

Here is the phonetic symbol for the short I sound that we hear in the word it and in sit.

下面是短 I 音的音標，我們在單詞 it 和 sit 中都能聽到。

Okay, before we jump in, let's talk about relaxed vowel sounds.

好了，在開始之前，我們先來談談鬆弛的元音。

Relaxed vowel sounds tend to be shorter and in connected speech, they tend to be more unstressed and sometimes they kind of sound similar.

鬆弛的元音往往較短，在連貫的語音中，它們往往更不緊張，有時聽起來還有點相似。

I've been getting a lot of comments on my videos lately.

最近我的視頻收到了很多評論。

Is this a short I sound that we hear in the word pit?

這是我們在 "坑 "字中聽到的短 I 音嗎？

Is it a short E sound that we hear in the word pet?

是我們在寵物一詞中聽到的短 E 音嗎？

Or is it a short U sound that we hear in the word put?

或者是我們在 put 這個詞中聽到的短 U 音？

However, when they are in an unstressed syllable, oftentimes they will sound very, very similar to listeners and speakers will make these sounds slightly different based on the region of the country where they are from, the speed of their pronunciation.

但是，當它們出現在非重讀音節中時，聽者往往會覺得它們聽起來非常非常相似，而說話者會根據自己來自的國家地區和發音速度，在發出這些音時略有不同。

So keep that in mind that I am talking about the truest sense of each of the sounds when I'm teaching these master classes.

所以請記住，我在教授這些大師班時，說的是每種音色最真實的感覺。

And next year, I will be teaching more classes on syllable stress and namely unstressed and stressed syllables.

明年，我將教授更多關於音節重音的課程，即非重音音節和重音音節。

So we will be talking about more of that soon.

是以，我們很快就會討論更多這方面的問題。

So please subscribe so you don't miss any of those.

是以，請訂閱，以免錯過任何精彩內容。

Let's start with how do we read these sounds?

我們先來看看如何讀出這些聲音？

The most common pattern is going to be that consonant-vowel-consonant pattern with the letter I in the word sit.

最常見的模式是 "sit"（坐）這個單詞中字母 I 的輔音-元音-輔音模式。

So an I when it's between two consonants will be short like in sit.

是以，當 "I "位於兩個輔音之間時，就會像 "sit"（坐下）那樣變短。

In American English, we pronounce this word B-E-E-N, bin.

在美式英語中，這個詞的發音是 B-E-E-N，即 bin。

We will pronounce the word B-E-A-N, bean.

And those two words are going to be pronounced the same in British English.

這兩個詞在英式英語中發音相同。

You do you, pick whichever one works for you.

Just be consistent and use the same pronunciation whichever you so choose.

無論你選擇哪種發音，都要保持一致，使用相同的發音。

Okay, we have the U-I in build, the Y in system, an O in women, and a U in busy.

好了，我們有了 "建設 "的 U-I、"系統 "的 Y、"婦女 "的 O 和 "忙碌 "的 U。

Okay, so here you can take a look at these.

好了，在這裡你可以看看這些。

Again, sit, bin, build, system, woman, and busy.

又是坐、倉、建、制、婦、忙。

All right, let's learn how to pronounce this sound.

好了，讓我們來學習這個音的發音。

I want you to watch and try to repeat after me.

我希望你們看著，並試著跟著我重複。

My lips are pulled back, so I'm not puckering.

我的嘴脣向後拉，所以沒有撅起來。

The tongue is flat in the middle of my mouth.

Now, for many of my students, E, like in the word eat, and I, the short I sound that we hear in the word it, are very confusing.

現在，對於我的許多學生來說，E（比如單詞 eat 中的 E）和 I（我們在單詞 it 中聽到的短 I 音）非常容易混淆。

Take a look, and you can see my mouth is tenser for the E.

看一看，你就會發現我的嘴巴因為 "E "而變得更緊繃了。

So when my mouth is tenser, my mouth is going to be more closed.

是以，當我的嘴比較緊張時，我的嘴就會比較緊閉。

My tongue is going to be higher in the roof of my mouth and flat.

我的舌頭會高高地伸到口腔頂部，而且是平的。

For the I, my mouth is just more relaxed.

對於我來說，我的嘴更放鬆了。

That relaxes my tongue, and then my tongue is just going to pop down a little bit.

這樣我的舌頭就會放鬆，然後我的舌頭就會向下彈一點。

It's going to be right behind those top front teeth, okay?

All right, so now let's get into some practice.

好了，現在讓我們開始練習吧。

What I'm going to do is I'm going to say each of these words.

我要做的就是逐一說出這些詞。

Then you'll repeat after me, and then we will try each list all together, and then we will practice in sentences.

然後你們跟著我複述，然後我們一起來嘗試每個列表，然後我們再進行句子練習。

If this shadowing practice is really helpful for you, join me tomorrow and the rest of the week for short I practice, the beginning, middle of words, and in sentences.

如果這種影子練習真的對你有幫助，明天和本週的其他時間，請和我一起進行簡短的 I 練習，包括單詞的開頭、中間和句子。

This sound does not occur at the end of words, so I won't be posting practice for that.

這個音不會出現在詞尾，所以我不會發布這方面的練習。

And if you really like these, you can purchase all of these videos together in one place.

如果你非常喜歡這些視頻，還可以在一個地方購買所有這些視頻。

這些都可以在 iTunes 商店買到。

They are in different volumes, because the files are so big.

由於文件太大，它們被分裝在不同的卷中。

So check out the descriptions when you're there to make sure you get the video guides if that's what you're looking for.

是以，如果您正在尋找視頻指南，請查看說明以確保您獲得了視頻指南。

I also have audio guides posted to iTunes, Teachers Pay Teachers, and to Google Play.

我還在 iTunes、Teachers Pay Teachers 和 Google Play 上發佈了音頻指南。

These are follow along shadowing lessons with audio embedded in a PDF file, so you can follow along with the words, just not the videos, okay?

這些跟讀課程的音頻嵌入在 PDF 文件中，是以您可以跟讀文字，但不能跟讀視頻，好嗎？

All right, let's take a look at our word and just listen.

好吧，讓我們看看我們的詞，聽一聽。

Invent, instant, imagine, incentive, immediate.

發明、即時、想象、激勵、立即。

Sit, rhythm, business, vengeance, disturbance.

坐、節奏、生意、復仇、騷動。

Again, if you are listening to the podcast, head over to YouTube at Tarle speech, and you can see all of these words.

同樣，如果您正在收聽播客，請訪問 YouTube 上的 Tarle speech，您可以看到所有這些單詞。

Invent, instance, imagine, incentive, immediate.

發明、實例、想象、激勵、即時。

My sentence is, imagination is the mother of invention.

我的一句話是：想象力是發明之母。

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow and Friday for practice at the beginning and in the middle of words, and then on Saturday for practice in sentences.

我期待著明天和週五看到你們進行單詞開頭和中間的練習，然後在週六進行句子練習。

And then on Sunday, I will have a short lesson.

然後在週日，我會上一堂簡短的課。
