Today you are getting the next video in the 100 most common words in English series,

今天是「100 個最常見英文單字」系列的下一部影片。

In this series, were studying the real pronunciation.

這系列中，我們將學習正確的英文發音。

This is likely different from what you learned in English class.

這跟你以前在英文課裡學的東西可能不太一樣。

You see, in American English, we have all sorts of words that are unstressed or even reduced:

美式英文中，有很多單字的發音其實沒有重音或甚至被省略掉，

The set of the 100 most common words in English contains many, many words that reduce.

在這「100 個最常見英文單字」中就包含了很多省略發音的單字。

如果你還沒看過這系列的第 1 部影片

and the other videos in this series, I do suggest

和其他影片的話，我非常建議你

These videos build one on top of the next,

這些影片都是按照順序排好的，

Today, were starting with number 41, the word 'so'.

今天，我們要從第 41 個單字「so」開始。

Fully pronounced, it has the OH as in NO diphthong.

它的完整發音和 NO 一樣，有雙母音「OH」。

when its used as a filler word at the beginning of a sentence.

當它放在句首，當語助詞的時候。

As a filler word, the word doesn't really have meaning.

So you're going to need another one.  So. So.

You'll definitely hear Americans do this.

Hey, we found another word that doesn't reduce.

又找到沒有省略發音的單字了。

We're on number 42 of the 100 most common words in English,

在「100 個最常見英文單字」中，這是我們學到的第 42 個，

and this is only the third word that generally is always stressed.

也是目前為止第 3 個發音永遠有重音的單字。

How amazing that so many words are unstressed or reduce!

驚人的是有這麼多發音沒有重音或被省略的單字！

For this word, we have the UH as in BUTTER vowel and the P consonant, Up.

這個字的發音，是由 BUTTER 的母音「UH」和 子音 P 組成，Up。

然後嘴唇放鬆，使氣流通過，pp。

Sometimes we don't release stop consonants,

有時會省略放鬆嘴唇這個步驟，

like if it's at the end of a thought group:

這邊 P 的發音，我省略了放鬆嘴唇的步驟。

Also we often skip the release if the next word begins with a consonant sound:

如果後面接子音開頭的單字，也會省略放鬆嘴唇的步驟：

我的嘴唇閉攏是為了 P 的發音，

but then when they parted, rather than pp,

但我的嘴唇打開之後，我沒有 pp，

the light escape of air, I just went right into the M sound.

沒有慢慢讓氣流通過，而是直接發出 M 音。

I think 'up' is so common because its used in so many phrasal verbs.

Up 這麼常見，是因為它常和其他動詞搭配成動詞片語。

There are so many phrasal verbs in English.

At the beginning of 2017, I made a new video every day going over phrasal verbs.

2017 年初的時候，我每天都有拍一部講解動詞片語的影片。

This is another word that is common in phrasal verbs.

Work out, figure out, burn out, black out,

Not surprising that some of these phrasal verb parts

這些常和動詞搭配的單字出現在這 100 個單字裡，

if it comes at the end of a thought group, or if the next word begins with a consonant.

假如在字組後，或後面接子音開頭的單字。

Let's look at some examples:  Watch out!

片語後面的 T，省略舌頭放鬆的步驟。

I cut off the air, so it's not: watch ow.

我阻斷了氣流，所以不是 watch ow。

That would just sound like there was no T.

但如果迅速阻斷氣流的話，watch out!

Without the falling intonation, it sounds like a T to us.

語調沒有下降，聽起來就有 T 的發音。

There, the T was followed by a word beginning with a consonant,

這時 T 的後面接子音開頭的單字，

T is special:  if the next word begins with a vowel or diphthong, then we flap it.

T的發音很特別：如果後面接母音或雙母音開頭的單字，我們會快速地彈一下舌頭。

A single rra-- against the roof of the mouth.

很快速地 rra-- 向口腔上方彈一下。

用快速彈舌的 T 連結兩個單字。

而且你有注意到 OF 的發音被省略了嗎？

'Of' is word number 4 in the 100 most common words in English list.

在「100 個最常見英文單字」中，「Of」是第 4 個單字。

This word is usually a conjunction and then, it's unstressed.

這個單字多作連接詞用，而且它沒有重音。
