提起澳洲,你首先会想到什么?是成群结队的绵羊美丽的自然风光,还是著名的悉尼歌剧院?同样是英语母语国家,但是和澳洲人交流,他们的英语口音也很独特,今天要为大家揭秘澳式发音
1. “I”→“OI”
元音[ai]读成[oi]
Eg: fight, night, bike
2. “AY”→“AI”
[ei]读成[ai]
play, mate, day, grape, Australia
Today is a good day.
澳大利亚口音读:To die is a good die.
3. Drop the T, R, G
What, rat, together,butter, dancing, doing
4. 非常喜欢 [ɑ]
“super”, “after”, “dinner”, “order”
都变成
“supah”, “aftah”, “dinnah”, “ordah”
5. Everything is a question
It’s cold outside.
Tell me what you think.
关于澳洲人的英语表达,则是将简短进行到底,可以说非常粗旷了,一起来看看吧~
1. Cuppa=a cup of tea
和英国一样,在澳大利亚喝茶也是很普遍的日常活动,想象你邀请朋友来喝茶,在英式英语里的对话应该是这样的:
-Hello Harry, how are you?
-Hello Bill. I’m fine. How are you?
-Very good thanks. I was just calling to see if you would like to come over for a cup of tea?
-That sounds great. I’ll be there in 15 minutes.
在澳大利亚,这段对话可能就变成了:
-G’day mate!
-G’day.
-Would ya like to pop around for a cuppa?
-Sure, mate. See ya in 15.
2. Macca’s = McDonald’s
3. Arvo = Afternoon
对澳大利亚人发出3个音节太麻烦,2音节更好,更快,更容易…
Wanna come over this arvo?
– Would you like to come over this afternoon?
Whatcha doin’ this arvo?
– What are you doing this afternoon?
4. Facey = Facebook
5. Prezzie = present
总结一下,澳洲英语的缩词方式主要有两种:把单词后面的几个单词换成o,或去掉后面一些字母,用ie代替,但请注意!这只是澳新英语的口语表达,书写中,语法和拼写规则还是要遵守的,尤其是在考试中。
