The Pronunciation of the Letter T（US居多）

T: stop consonant(爆破音)

l?妖孽本孽：

1.?發(fā)音特點(diǎn)-三步走：舌尖頂住上牙齒背部，成阻(舌后形成壓力較大的密閉空間）、持阻(控制某一壓力范圍之內(nèi))、除阻（氣流突然從口腔沖出，與口腔內(nèi)壁形成摩擦)

2.?Air consuming

3.?-n\-l\-th【部分連讀、弱讀-th】與t發(fā)音嘴型類似

l?Full T原生T

e.g. Get a better water bottle.

l?Held T克制T(成阻+持阻) 嘴型出來但是不出聲

e.g. Not for me.

Don’t go.

I hurt someone. VS I heard someone.(清輔音 VS 濁輔音+s)

濁輔音此時(shí)保留時(shí)間較長，所需降調(diào)較多；

清輔音整體時(shí)間較短，所需降調(diào)較小。
