The tongue tip stays behind the bottom front teeth. The middle/front part of the tongue arches up towards the roof of the mouth, diminishing the space between the tongue and the roof of the mouth.</div><div><br>The corners of the lips pull a little wide, ee. They’re not quite relaxed.</div><div><br>Let’s see this sound up close and in slow motion.<br>A little jaw drop, tongue tip down and forward while the top front of the tongue arches towards the roof of the mouth. The corners of the lips pull out.</div><div><br>In the word ‘please’, the EE vowel is stressed. Same position.</div><div><br>When stressed, the vowel has the up-down shape of a stressed syllable: EE. When unstressed, it’s lower and flatter in pitch, quieter, and faster, ee. This is a very common ending unstressed vowel in American English because of all of the words that end in Y, like the word ‘busy’. Let’s see this word up close and in slow motion.</div><div><br>Jaw drops, top front of tongue arches up, and the corners of the lips pull out.</div><div><br>Let’s compare the stressed EE in ‘please’, on top, with the unstressed EE in ‘busy’, on the bottom. You can see the mouth position for the unstressed EE is a little more relaxed. The jaw doesn’t drop as much.</div><div><br>A more relaxed mouth position for the unstressed version of a vowel or diphthong is very common because they are shorter. So, there is less time to make the full mouth position.</div><div><br>Stressed EE: need, EE<br>Unstressed: busy, ee<br>EE, ee. EE, ee.<br>Example words. Repeat with me:<br>Keep, early, police, coffee, meet, each.<br><br></div><div>I hope this video helps you understand this sound. That’s it, and thanks so much for using Rachel’s English.</div> 影片文字:<div><br>在这个美国英语发音视频中,我们将学习如何像发单词“SHE”中的元音一样发EE。这个元音在许多语言(词汇)中是很常见的。<br><br>为了发准这个音,下巴只是下降一点点。舌尖抵下齿。舌头的中部/前部向嘴顶拱起,从而减小了舌头和嘴顶之间的空间。<br><br>嘴唇的角拉得有点宽。他们不太放松。<br><br>让我们以慢动作、近距离的方式来看这个音。<br><br>颌下垂一点,舌尖向下并向前,而舌尖的顶部则向嘴顶拱起。嘴角向两旁伸开。<br><br>在“please请”一词中,EE元音是重读的。(与以上我们刚解释的)在相同的位置。<br><br>重读时,元音具有重读音节的上下形状:EE。非重读时,它的音调更低,更平坦,更安静,更快,ee。这是美式英语中非常常见的结尾非重读元音,因为所有以Y结尾的单词,例如“busy忙”一词。让我们以慢动作、近距离的方式来看这个词。<br><br>颌骨下降,舌头的顶部向上拱起,唇角拉出。<br><br>让我们在嘴顶部比较单词“please请”中的重读EE和在嘴底部单词“busy繁忙”中的非重读EE。您可以看到,非重读的EE的嘴部位置更加放松。下巴没有下降太多。<br><br>非重读版本的元音或双元音的嘴部位置较放松,这是很常见的,因为它们读起来较短。因此,有更少的时间可以完全张开嘴巴。<br><br>重读的EE:单词“需要”<br>非重读的:单词“忙”<br>EE,ee。EE,ee。(大写“EE”表示重读,小写“ee”表示非重读)<br>例词。跟我重复:<br>单词中文意思为:保持,早,警察,咖啡,见面,每个。<br><br>希望这段视频能帮助您理解这个发音。就这样(今天上课就到这里),非常感谢您使用瑞秋英语。</div> <div style="text-align: right;">英文经典特训班</div><div style="text-align: right;">2020.2.14</div><div style="text-align: right;"><br></div><div style="text-align: left;">文字&翻译:胡先生</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br></div> <h1 style="text-align: center"><b><font color="#333333">班级上课通知</font></b></h1>
