じゃあ

Hey, how is everything going?

Are you back to school today
or back to work??

The picture at the top
today shows two guys
fighting about pronunciation!

Some areas will say:

"youse"

and some will say:

"you'uns."

Most people say "you guys!"

"How are you guys today?"

Southern people say ya'll!!!
(「ヨール」のような音)

Linking and Shrinking

In Japanese, most sounds
are pronounced individually!

In English we tend to speed
through
many unimportant
words!!

Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_11115911.jpgWhat does link mean???

This means to connect!

It is a noun and a verb!!






Shrink means to make smaller!

The opposite is expand!!

034.gifSay these two words back to back:

Expend and expand
Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_11124196.jpgThe meanings are totally different
so it's very important to
pronounce them correctly!!!




"end" and "and" sound
very different!

"end" >> "bend"
"and" >> "band"

Linking and shrinking is
the number one reason
people have a hard time
hearing English!!!



*pronunciation (名): 発音
 pronounce (動): 発音する
 link: つながる
 shrink: 縮まる
 expand: 拡張する
 expend: 費やす




Rules:

"ing" words are usually spoken without the "g."

"I am going to the movies!" This will be:

Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_1113375.jpg049.gif"I'm goin to the movies."

034.gifWe drop the "g" sound!
(「ゴーイン」)

"going to" >>> "gonna"
(「ゴナ」)
"I'm gonna go to the movies."




"nd" words are usually spoken
without the "d" sound!

"and" sounds like "n"

M&M's are spoken like this:

"eminems"
(「エミネムズ」)
In fact, the rapper's name
eminem sounds the same!!!


Linking

A word ending in a consonant
that is followed by an open vowel
will link!!!

Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_11144426.jpg"get a" will sound like "getta"
"thinking about" will be
"thinkinabout"

"take a break" will also sound like
one word: "takabreak."




034.gifEven though this word ends
with an "e," the "e" is silent, so
these words link!!!

Look at a sentence like this!!!
This kind of sentence can
be a nightmare for Japanese
and Korean Speakers:
Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_11152214.jpg"I've been thinking about taking
a break and going on a long
vacation to get away from the city!!!"



So many words will
link and shrink
in this sentence!

Linking and shrinking allows
us to speak quickly and get to
the important information!




*consonant: 子音
 vowel: 母音
 nightmare: 悪夢






英語でこれなんていう
???

社交的

Outgoing
Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_11375595.jpgSomeone who really likes
people and generally likes
to meet new people is called
outgoing!

"Are you outgoing?"

"She is so outgoing!"

"Kim seems outgoing, but
she is actually very shy."




Pronunciation (発音) & 社交的_f0212156_551468.gifDid you know that
hips in Japan are in a
different location on the body
than in America???
英語でこれなんていう 「ヒップはhips???」
