美音和英音的差別在哪？

差別 1美音音量大，英音音量小。 2美音發(fā)音動(dòng)作多，英音少，也就是說(shuō)美音發(fā)57個(gè)音，英音48個(gè)音。3美音表情豐富，語(yǔ)調多。4美音"音形對應關(guān)系" 比英音明顯。such as :water, watch, what.5語(yǔ)言環(huán)境差別。

美音和英音的差別在哪？

英音和美音的語(yǔ)音區別：

1. /t/的發(fā)音

在英式英語(yǔ)中/t/的發(fā)音只有兩種，正常發(fā)/t/或者省去不發(fā)，也就是我們說(shuō)的失去**

如：You should qui(t) this job.

在這個(gè)句子中/t/是要失去**的。

而在美式英語(yǔ)中，除了發(fā)/t/和失去**以外還有另一種發(fā)音，叫做/t/的濁化，即把/t/濁化為一個(gè)soft /d/。將/t/濁化的條件為/t/處于單詞中間，并且在非重讀音節上。

如：It(d)aly，att(d)ic，at(d)om, phot(d)ograph 在這些詞中，/t/的發(fā)音要變?yōu)槿?d/。

2. 不卷舌與卷舌

這一點(diǎn)是大家普遍比較熟悉的，在大部分單詞中英式發(fā)音不卷舌而美式發(fā)音卷舌。

如：water，part，dark，door等。

這里需要注意的一點(diǎn)是，就算是美式發(fā)音也只有看到單詞里有字母r時(shí)才可以卷舌。單詞里如果沒(méi)有字母r，那么不管你是英音還是美音都不可卷舌。比較容易出現錯誤的是-ous這個(gè)字母組合，如：famous，delicious，conscious等。除此之外還有breakfast，idea這兩個(gè)詞，也是比較容易出錯。

3. /a:/和/?/

英式和美式還有一點(diǎn)不同是當a在字母s, f, n之前時(shí)，英音發(fā)/a:/的，美音要發(fā)/?/。

如：fast, ask, task, after，dance，month等。

4. /?/和/a:/

英音中發(fā)/?/在美音中要發(fā)/a:/，這里需要注意的是美音只是有/a:/的趨勢而已，并不需要將口型開(kāi)到那么大。

如：fox, hot, box, pot, Moscow, modify等

5. /?/和/?/

這一點(diǎn)其實(shí)涉及到了美音中的音變問(wèn)題，如bus/b?s/不管英音還是美音音標都是這樣，英音呢就老老實(shí)實(shí)的按照音標來(lái)讀。但是美音則會(huì )把這里的/?/變?yōu)??/，不過(guò)也是有變?yōu)??/的趨勢就好，不用完全變?yōu)??/。類(lèi)似的詞還有cut，butter， hut, but, mud, duck, stuck等。

這些就是英式英語(yǔ)和美式英語(yǔ)的一些不同點(diǎn)。想要完全掌握僅僅知道是不夠的，還需要自己細細體會(huì )練習?？梢栽谠~典中找到示例發(fā)音，跟讀模仿。建議開(kāi)始的時(shí)候專(zhuān)注在英音或美音的其中之一，練好了再去模仿另一個(gè)。以免造成混淆。

英音和美音的區別（2）

大家對各種口音的印象大概是這樣的：

British English: Traditional

American English: Simplified

Canadian English: a little of both

Australian English: hehabala...(澳大利亞的英語(yǔ)相對來(lái)講有些英美混合，加上一些土著(zhù)詞匯和一堆俚語(yǔ)，所以相較于前三種更難懂一些)

英語(yǔ)作為我們的二語(yǔ)習得，可能大家在學(xué)習的過(guò)程中都會(huì )有些這樣的疑惑，英式英語(yǔ)和美式英語(yǔ)到底哪個(gè)好？我到底該學(xué)哪種？哪個(gè)更適合我？具體說(shuō)下來(lái)它們在拼寫(xiě)、單詞、語(yǔ)調等方面都是有些差別的。

一、拼寫(xiě)

十八世紀時(shí)，Noah Webster為了讓英語(yǔ)的拼寫(xiě)聽(tīng)起來(lái)更像其讀音，對英語(yǔ)拼寫(xiě)做出了改革，這對美式英語(yǔ)的拼寫(xiě)產(chǎn)生了一定的影響。主要為以下幾點(diǎn)：

1. re→er：許多單詞在英式英語(yǔ)中結尾為-re，在美式英語(yǔ)中結尾為-er,如：

英式：sombre theatre centre

美式：somber theater center

2. nce→nse：在一些單詞中英式結尾為-nce，美式為-nse，如：

英式：licence offence defence

美式：license offense defense

3. ou→o：一些在英式中為-ou的單詞，在美式中為-o，如：

英式：honour labour colour

美式：honor labor color

4. ise→ize: 某些詞匯中英式英語(yǔ)中的-ise在美式中為-ize；除此以外一些單詞如果讀音為/z/那么拼寫(xiě)中美式也會(huì )將英式的-s變?yōu)?z，如：

英式：organise cosy

美式：organize cozy

二、詞匯

英式英語(yǔ)和美式英語(yǔ)在許多意思上使用的詞匯都是不同的，比如同樣是“褲子”，美國人會(huì )說(shuō)‘pants’，而英國人則會(huì )說(shuō)‘trousers’，而‘pants’在美語(yǔ)中是“內褲”的意思。所以對于這些詞匯差異，大家還是有必要稍做了解的。

三、語(yǔ)調

美式英語(yǔ)相對來(lái)說(shuō)是不怎么動(dòng)嘴唇的，他們的發(fā)音相對來(lái)講更靠后，腹部發(fā)聲，聲音的變化更加依賴(lài)于舌位的變化。美式英語(yǔ)更加具有音樂(lè )性，大家可以更多的將其與美國本土音樂(lè )爵士樂(lè )練習在一起，有本美音語(yǔ)調教材叫Jazz Chants，這本書(shū)就很好的體現了美式英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)調的音樂(lè )性。美是英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)調就像下樓梯一樣，以高音開(kāi)始，以低音結束。當想要強調某一個(gè)詞或者想法時(shí)就開(kāi)始一個(gè)新的階梯。下行的語(yǔ)調也會(huì )讓你聽(tīng)起來(lái)更加的自信、有權威。不過(guò)現在青少年也更偏向于使用上升勢的語(yǔ)調，使整個(gè)人聽(tīng)起來(lái)很活潑并且有朝氣。

相對來(lái)講英式英語(yǔ)的語(yǔ)調上升的更多一些，其中英美區分比較明顯的是降升調的使用頻率。

在英式英語(yǔ)中，降調的使用頻率是很高的，比如普通的疑問(wèn)句Are you there? 如果沒(méi)有什么特殊情感的話(huà)，美式英語(yǔ)會(huì )使用簡(jiǎn)單的升調，而在英式英語(yǔ)中你常常會(huì )聽(tīng)到這樣的句子被用降升調說(shuō)出來(lái)。語(yǔ)調的區分即模仿相對于發(fā)音來(lái)講要更加難一些，因為它會(huì )涉及到連讀、弱讀等現象，這些需要較長(cháng)時(shí)間的練習和積累。語(yǔ)調也并不是像我們小時(shí)候所學(xué)的一般疑問(wèn)句用升調，特殊疑問(wèn)句用降調這么簡(jiǎn)單的。語(yǔ)調的使用并沒(méi)有這么絕對的規則，也沒(méi)有多錯之分。更多的是要在合適的場(chǎng)景下，使用合適的語(yǔ)調。

這些就是英式英語(yǔ)和美式英語(yǔ)的一些不同點(diǎn)。想要完全掌握僅僅知道是不夠的，別人總結的再好，終究不是自己的，這些也只能是為你提供一些參考幫助而已，要想自己掌握，還需細細體會(huì )練習?？梢栽谠~典中找到示例發(fā)音，跟讀模仿。在發(fā)音練好之后，找語(yǔ)音片段模仿語(yǔ)調，多聽(tīng)、多體會(huì )、多練習。建議開(kāi)始的時(shí)候專(zhuān)注在英音或美音的其中之一，練好了再去模仿另一個(gè)。以免造成混淆。
