【初级水平】:基础对话 Conversation
场景:小华推送小红几个小视频,让小红看某导游的英文发音,两人在笑声中分享快乐,探讨学术,并试图看到视频后的“本质”。
Xiaohua: Xiaohong, I find this guy really interesting when he pronounces "th" sounds in English.
小华:小红。我觉得这个男的发音好有意思。
Xiaohong: What does he say?
小红:他说什么了?
Xiaohua: He goes like “Shuan Q” instead of “thank you”.
小华:他把谢谢说成了“栓Q”。
Xiaohong:Hahaha, I think it's funny because he mispronounces the "th" sounds. They are hard to pronounce. But he's cute. This video really goes viral.
小红:哈哈哈,挺逗的。他把th发错了。的确,th发音挺难的。但是,他很可爱啊。这视频挺火的。
Xiaohua:Are you serious? I think he pronounces th sounds in a funny way.
小华:你是认真的吗?我觉得他是哗众取宠。
Xiaohong:So, you mean he does it on purpose? No, I think he has a strong accent of his mother tongue. To my understanding, in most parts of Southern China, people don't have "r" sound, like "merry". They go like "melly". And th sounds don't even exist in Mandarin, Chinese Pinyin. So, it's okay to make mistakes.
小红:所以你觉得他是故意做的吗?嗯,其实他只是有比较重的口音。据我所知,在中国南方许多地方,人们发不出‘r’的音,比如:merry。他们发成melly。th的发音在普通话里也没有,所以,发错音其实也没关系。
Xiaohua: But what is the correct way to say th?
小华:但是正确的发音是什么呢?

场景:小红在查阅和拜访名师后给小华言简意赅地传授了th的发音技巧,并大赞导游哥,因为他的自信和甜美的笑容已经让感动的人点赞了。
Hi, Xiaohua. Now, I am going to tell you 2 tips about th sounds. First, "th" has two sounds, unvoiced and voiced. Second, to make the sound, you should put the tip of the tongue between the top and bottom teeth to allow the air to squeeze past. "th", "th", thank you; "th", "th", this. Is this simple? I think you can do it correctly.
嗨,小华。现在,我要告诉你们关于th音的两个技巧。首先,th有两个音,清音和浊音。其次,要发这个音,你应该把舌尖放在上齿和下齿之间,让空气挤压通过。th,th,谢谢你; th, th, 这。这简单吗? 我想你能做对。
I think the tour guide is so confident that he can speak English fluently, even with his strong accent. Remember, accent doesn't matter. It's better than nothing.
我认为这个导游非常自信,他的英语说得很流利,尽管他的口音很重。记住,口音不重要。有总比没有好。
Every time I watch his video, I wish I could talk like him. If I had a chance to visit Guilin and Yangshuo, I think I could hire him as my tour guide.
每次我看他的视频,我都希望我能像他那样说话。如果我有机会去桂林和阳朔游玩,我都想雇他做我的导游。
Wait, let me share a video with you about "th" sounds. I bet you will like it.
等等,让我和你分享一个关于这些声音的视频。我相信你会喜欢的。
