If you ever had the perfect example of an RP voice, Patrick Stewart is your go-to.
如果你一直在寻找“角色扮演(RP)语音”的完美范例,那么帕特里克·斯图尔特绝对是个不容错过的选择。
I think you should start studying RP, which is "Received Pronunciation."
我认为你应该开始学习“Received Pronunciation”(即标准英语发音)。
There's no one better.
没有人比他更出色了。
So if Patrick Stewart's voice is the voice you desire, let's "Make it so"!
如果帕特里克·斯图尔特的配音正是你所需要的,那么我们就“努力实现这个愿望”吧!
So let's break it down with that upper RP voice.
那么,我们就用那种带有“高级RP风格”的语气来详细解释一下吧。
You would almost never hear a "Glottal T".
你几乎永远听不到所谓的“声门塞音”(即用声门发出的音)。
For example, Patrick Stewart would never say "wa'a"
例如,帕特里克·斯图尔特绝对不会说“wa’a”。
He doesn't do that.
他不会那么做的。
Instead, he would pronounce the true t water, water.
相反,他会把字母 “t” 发成真正的 “w” 音,也就是 “water”(水)这个单词中的发音。
However, when a t sound finishes a word, then yes, it's okay to make that t glottal T For example,
然而,当一个单词以字母 “t” 结尾时,那么将这个 “t” 发成喉塞音(即所谓的 “glottal T”)是可以的。例如……
in words like...
用这样的话来说……
So in that example, we've got two words finishing with that t sound.
在这个例子中,有两个单词的结尾发音为“t”。
One of them was glottal.
其中一种是喉塞音(即通过声门产生的音)。
The other one was not.
另一个则不是(这样的)。
It doesn't matter which one you make glottal or which one you don't.
无论你选择发出声门音(glottal sound)还是不发出声门音,其实都没有关系。
Provided one of those teases pronounced correctly, then you would still classify as upper.
只要其中某个“提示”(tease)的发音正确,那么你仍然会被归类为“高级用户”(upper user)。
I have a video explaining some of the rules of the glottal t.
我有一个视频,其中解释了与“声门T”(glottal t)相关的一些规则。
For example, when the t is between two vowel sounds, then you really should pronounce the true t,
例如,当字母 “t” 位于两个元音发音之间时,你就应该发出这个字母 “t” 的正确发音。
for example water better.
例如,水会表现得更好(即水的特性或效果更明显)。
There are two vowel sounds either side of that t sound.
在那个 “t” 音的两侧,各有一个元音发音。
However, when there is a vowel before it and a consonant after it, then you can make that t glottal.
然而,当该字母前面是一个元音、后面是一个辅音时,就可以将该字母的发音变为“喉塞音”(即通过声门来发出声音)。
For example, in words like
例如,在像“for example”这样的词语中……
catnip, catnip.
猫薄荷……
In the classic line, make it so he doesn't pronounce that t make it so he says, make it so.
用那句经典的话来说:就是要让他不会读出那个字母“t”的发音;也就是说,要让他能够正确地说出那个单词。
Now, Patrick Stewart did originate from Yorkshire, which is actually in the north of England.
帕特里克·斯图尔特确实出生于约克郡,而约克郡位于英格兰的北部。
Sometimes that accent comes out in some words you may hear.
有时候,那种口音会体现在某些你听到的单词中。
There is still occasionally a twang of Yorkshire in my accent.
我的口音中偶尔仍会带着一丝约克郡的痕迹(即那种独特的发音风格)。
I think maybe I wouldn't be here if they had not taught me how to laugh more, because I didn't laugh very much at all.
我想,如果他们没有教会我如何更多地笑的话,我可能就不会在这里了——因为以前我几乎从不笑。
And here I said laugh then.
就在这时,我说:“那就笑吧。
Yeah.
是的。
Why do you think I said laugh instead of laugh?
你为什么认为我说的是 “laugh” 而不是 “laughes” 呢?
In the phoneme, sometimes the Yorkshire accent comes out.
在发音过程中,有时会体现出约克郡的口音特点。
For example, we in the south would say are like in mother, brother.
例如,在南方,我们会用“像妈妈一样”、“像哥哥一样”这样的表达来形容某人。
But sometimes when Patrick Stewart says those two words and that phoneme, it comes out like my mother,
但有时候,当帕特里克·斯图尔特说出那两个词以及那个音素时,听起来就像我母亲说话的声音一样……
my mother, your mother.
我的母亲,也就是你的母亲。
And that is characteristic of a northern accent.
这就是北方口音的特征。
However, the other 99% of the time he sounds southern and very upper.
然而,在其余 99% 的时间里,他的说话方式带有南方口音,同时显得非常高雅(或“上层社会”的气质)。
We suddenly failed.
我们突然就失败了。
One big characteristic of the upper classes sounding English accent is this the alveolar tap.
上层阶级在说英语时所使用的口音有一个显著特点,那就是齿龈弹音(alveolar tap)的发音方式。
So in this case we're talking about the r sound in words, for example, the word parallel.
在这种情况下,我们讨论的是单词中的 “r” 音素,例如单词 “parallel”(平行的)。
