Hello and welcome back to English with Lucy. I』ve got a new microphone, very exciting. A lot of you have been commenting on my radio quality, so I’m going to try and improve it with this. I』ve also ordered another one for voiceovers, so hopefully my audio quality from now on will be wonderful。
你們好,歡迎回到「和Lucy學英語」。我有了一個新的麥克風,很興奮。因為很多觀眾一直在評論我的收音質量,所以我準備試著用這個(麥克風)來改善它。我也給旁白播音員買了一個,希望從現在開始我的聲音質量會非常棒。
For one thing I am having trouble with at the moment is my focus, so please bear with me with this with this lesson, because I know that my focus isn’t great, it’s something I’m working on.
so today’s lesson is going to be a pronunciation lesson.
一方面現在我的專注力還有一點點問題,所以請大家這節課稍微容忍我一下,因為我知道我的專注力不適非常好,這是我一直在努力改善的。
今天的課是發音課。
Oxford did a study of over 1 billion words and they chose the 100 most used words in the English language, so I』ve taken those 100 words and I’m going to pronounce them for you.
牛津大學對10億多單詞進行了一項研究,他們從英語中選擇出了100個最常用的單詞,我已經拿到了這100個單詞,接下來我將讀給你們聽。
Now in my opinion, the absolute best way to sound more like a native speaker is to imitate other native speakers, so I want you to imitate or to copy me, so I』ll say the word and then you repeat, I』ll say it again and then you repeat and then we move on to the next one.
我認為聽起來更像母語者的最佳的方法就是去模仿其他母語者們。所以我希望你們來模仿或者效仿我,我將說一個單詞,然後你來重複,我將再說一遍,你再重複,然後我們再進行下一個單詞。
Now remember that I am speaking British English, so my pronunciation will be different to an American speakers』 pronunciation. American English can be quite different, but just as beautiful. Now these words might seem quite easy to you, because they’re words that we use all the time, but really concentrate on the vowel sounds, because in many languages like Spanish you have 5 vowel sounds and in British English we have 12 vowel sounds as well as diphthongs.
記住,我是說英式英語的,所以我的發音與美式英語的發音不同。美式英語很不同,但是同樣好聽。這些單詞看起來對你來說可能很簡單,因為這是我們總在用的單詞,但是要密切注意元音聲,因為在很多語言中,例如西班牙語有5個元音聲,英語有12個元音聲,還有雙元音。
Now I do have the list the complete list of the words in the description box, so if you are looking for the pronunciation of a specific word, then you can check that and click on the right timing. Okay let’s begin:
現在描述框裡面有這些單詞的完整列表,如果你想查找具體某個單詞的發音,你可以去裡面查看然後點擊右邊的timing。好,那我們現在開始吧:
