1、连读 Liaisons1. 元音与元音之间的连读Linking vowels to vowels元音对元音的连读实际上是在元音之间插入半元音j或W,从而使纯元音音节之间的过渡变得自然、流畅，读起来更加上口。半元音插入的情况如下：（1）前面的单词以开元音，如 或i：结尾，紧随其后的单词以元音开头， 这时，在两个单词之间出现半元音j作为过渡。（2）前面的单词以闭元音，如u或o结尾，紧随其后的单词以元音开头， 这时，在两个单词之间出现半元音w作为过渡。（3） 为了把两个相邻的词连在一起，人们往往在以? 或 a： 结尾的词后面加上r音，以便和后一个词的起首元音连接，这种添加的/r/称为外加音”间Phr

6、音同后面的元音连在一起， 像是构成一个音节一样的读出 来，以使语言更具有流畅自然的特点。 但是连读必须是发生在短语或句子的同一 个意群中的，在意群 （及短语或从句 ）之间有停顿时，两个短语或两个从句间相邻 的音不连读。一般来说有两种连读：（1）在同一意群中的两个词，前者以辅音结尾,后者以元音开头，这两个音就可以连起来读。（2）相邻的两个词中，前一个以字母 r 结尾，后一个词以元音开始，辅音 /r/ 可与后面的元音连读。这种连读叫“连读”。Phrases ：take a nap abouttake a message to take advantage oftake airlooklook ou
