蒂姆英文
Hi. I'm Tim and this is my Pronunciation Workshop. Here, I'm gonna show you how English is really spoken.
嗨，我是蒂姆，这是我的英音课堂。在这里，我会教给你英音的发音方式。
Come on, let's go inside. Oh dear, excuse me.
来吧，让我们到屋里来。哦天呐，原谅我。
I'm a bit tired: I was out late last night, with the lads. I know, yeah, we didn't get back until 9.30. In the evening.
我有点儿累了，昨天和老朋友们玩儿的特别晚。我懂得，我们晚上9点半才回来。
It was a wild night. I know, I know, I am a party animal.Anyway, while I get myself together a bit, let's ask some other people in London what they got up to last night.
晚上特别嗨。我知道，我就是一个派对动物。不管怎么说，趁着我需要清醒一下，我们来问问伦敦其他人昨天晚上都干什么了吧。
At 9 o'clock last night I was watching a movie. I was laying in bed.
昨天晚上9点我在看电影。我躺在床上。
I was invited to a dinner at my friend's house. I was playing football.
我去我朋友家吃饭了。我在踢足球。
I was out drinking. Well well, what interesting lives we all lead.
我在外面喝酒。看看我们活的都多么有滋有味。
Now they all used the past form of the verb 'to be' - was. Now the word 'was' is made of the sounds/w/, /ɒ/, /z/, isn't it? Or is it?
他们全都用了"to be"的过去式，"was"。"Was"这个单词的发音是由/w/,/ɒ/,/z/组成的，对吧？是这样吗？
Listen again. What sound can you actually hear?
再来听一遍。看看你听到了什么发音。
At 9 o'clock last night I was watching a movie. I was laying in bed.
9点的时候我在看电影。我躺在床上。
I was invited to a dinner at my friend's house. I was playing football.
我去我朋友家吃饭了。我在踢足球。
I was out drinking. When the word 'was' is unstressed, as in the examples we've just heard, then the vowel sound changes to a schwa -/ə/.
我在外面喝酒。像我们在例句里面听到的，当"was"的发音被弱化，元音变成了schwa音 - /ə/。
So 'was' becomes /wəz/, and also 'were' becomes/wə/. These are called weak forms.
所以"was"变成了/wəz/，而且"were"也变成了/wə/。这叫弱读。
Here are some more examples. I was there when it happened.
这里有其他的一些例子。那件事发生的时候我就在那里。
We were delighted with the results. We were having a good time until it rained.
我们很高兴有这样的结果。下雨之前我们玩儿的很开心。
He was feeling much better last night. Right, now you've heard the examples, and now it's your turn.
他昨晚感觉好多了。现在你已经听完这些例子了，轮到你了。
Listen and repeat. I was there when it happened.
听完跟读。发生那件事的时候我就在那里。
We were delighted with the results. We were having a good time until it rained.
我们很高兴有这样的结果。下雨之前我们玩儿的很开心。
He was feeling much better last night. Great work.
他昨晚感觉好多了。做的不错。
