Usually, we tend to think that the y is associated with the letter Y, but that's not always the case.

通常，我們會認為 "y "與字母 "Y "有關，但事實並非總是如此。

For example, the word "figure". figure.

例如，"數字 "一詞。

There is no Y yet.

還沒有 Y。

Can you hear the y sound? "Figure". So what I want to work on today is the transition between the consonant before and the y.

你能聽到 "y "的發音嗎？"圖"。 今天我要練習的是前輔音和 y 之間的過渡。

So you want to transition from one consonant to the other with no breaks in the middle. "Figure", "figure". "Argument", not "argument", "argument". "Regular", "reg-ya", "regular". "Popular". "Pop-ya", ya, right? "Pop-ular". "Articulate", "articulate".

是以，你要從一個輔音過渡到另一個輔音，中間不能有斷點。"圖"，是 "圖"。"Argument"，不是 "argument"，是 "argument"。"常規"，"reg-ya"，"常規"。"流行"，"popular"。"Pop -ya", ya, right?"Pop -ular"."鏗鏘有力"，"鏗鏘有力"。

She's an articulate person.

她是個能言善辯的人。

Let's articulate what we want to say.

讓我們把想說的話說清楚。

Notice the difference between "articulate", the adjective, and "to articulate".

注意形容詞 "鏗鏘有力 "與 "to articulate "之間的區別。

That's the verb. "Gen-u-ary", "gen-u-ary". "Man-u-al", "man-u-al".

這是動詞"Gen -u -ary"，"gen -u -ary"。"Man -u -al"，"man -u -al"。

Remember the dark L at the end. "An-u-al", "an-u-al". So again, popular, regular, argument, figure, "gen-u-ary", "man-u-al", "an-u-al".

記住末尾的深色 "L"An -u -al"，"an -u -al"。 所以同樣，流行的、正規的、爭論的、形象的，"gen -u -ary"，"man -u -al"，"an -u -al"。

You're good to go.

你可以走了。
