I'm John Russell.

我是約翰-羅素

I was recently watching a classic American movie called Cool Hand.

最近在看一部經典的美國電影《涼手》。

Luke, I can't tell the whole story here, but the basic idea is that cool hand.

盧克，我不能在這裡講述整個故事，但基本的想法是，酷手。

Luke does prison time and he tries to escape.

盧克做監獄的時間，他試圖逃跑。

Ah, lot.

啊，很多。

His escape attempts reminded me of certain English continent sounds.

他的逃跑嘗試讓我想起了某些英語大陸的聲音。

They are called nasal Zales.

它們被稱為鼻腔扎萊斯。

I'll explain most of the continent sounds we have explored in this Siris are made by air passing through the mouth.

我會解釋我們在這個Siris中探索的大多數大陸聲音都是由空氣通過嘴發出的。

But there are certain kinds of sounds that involved blocking the air flow from leaving the mouth.

但有某些種類的聲音，涉及到阻斷氣流離開口腔。

So what does the air do when it is blocked from leaving the mouth?

那麼，當空氣被堵住不能離開口腔時，它是怎麼做的呢？

It escapes through the nose.

它從鼻子裡逃出來。

The air is determined to escape.

氣定神閒地逃走。

If it can't get out one way, it will get out another way.

如果一條路走不通，它就會從另一條路走出去。

Much like a prisoner who is determined to escape in American English.

很像美式英語中一個決心逃跑的囚犯。

We have three nasal continent sounds.

我們有三個鼻洲音。

Mm mm mm.

毫米毫米毫米。

M as in man.

M作為人。

Mm.

嗯。

As in natural.

如自然。

Mm.

嗯。

As in escaping those three sounds, All involved blocking the air from escaping through the mouth.

如逃避這三種聲音，都涉及到阻擋空氣從口中逸出。

But each sound requires a different kind of blocking.

但每種聲音都需要不同的阻隔。

Mm.

嗯。

Involves both lips blocking the air from the mouth.

涉及到雙脣堵住嘴裡的空氣。

Mm.

嗯。

Involves the tip of the tongue touching the tooth ridge.

涉及舌尖觸及牙脊。

The area maybe a centimeter or two behind your top teeth.

你上牙後一兩釐米的地方可能是。

MM involves blocking the air with the back of the tongue.

MM要用舌後部堵住空氣。

It touches the area known as the soft palate.

它所觸及的區域稱為軟顎。

If you ever hear English speakers talk when they have a cold or allergies, you will notice that their nasal sounds mm hmm, become distorted or unusual.

如果你曾經聽過說英語的人說話，當他們有感冒或過敏，你會注意到他們的鼻音mm hmm，變得扭曲或不尋常。

This is because the air is being blocked at the mouth and it cannot escape from the news as well as it normally would.

這是因為空氣被堵在了口子上，不能像正常情況下那樣從新聞中逃出來。

That's all for today.

今天就到這裡吧。

Keep up the good work.

繼續保持良好的工作。
