喲喲切克鬧,英文的節奏造不造?
英語是一種重音節拍語。其節奏特點是以重音計時,即重讀音節與非重讀音節有規律地交替出現。在朗讀或說話時重讀音節要念得重些、長些、慢些;非重讀音節則要念得輕些、短些、快些。由此導致語流中聲音的輕重、緩急、長短按一定的規律自然結合,形成英語語言的節奏。
英語的節奏群是以一個且只有一個重讀音節為核心,加上它前後可能出現的非重讀音節而構成的語音單位。重讀音節前的非重讀音節,是其附屬成分,讀的時候可以略快,連讀弱讀均可。重讀音節後的非重讀音節,是其構成部分,應當與重讀音節分攤節奏群的時間。
例句:
There’s nobody there.
這裡的「there's」屬於重讀音節前的非重讀音節,一般是弱讀
She studies every morning.
這裡的「she」屬於重讀音節前的非重讀音節,一般是弱讀
He’s opening the drawers and taking things out.
這裡的「he's, the, and, things」屬於重讀音節前的非重讀音節,一般是弱讀
We are going there tomorrow.
這裡的「We're」屬於重讀音節前的非重讀音節,一般是弱讀;「there」是在重讀音節單詞going後面的非重讀音節,會分攤節奏群的時間。

節奏感是個很好玩的東西,大家在練習的時候可以利用手勢來提示自己重音節單詞的出現,或者打著拍子數著節奏,邊拍邊說。我們下面用一個英文歌曲來練習練習我們的節奏感吧。
