In this American English pronunciation video, we're going to go over the pronunciation of
the word 'probably'.
This week's Word of the Week is 'probably'. 'Probably' is a three-syllable word, but some
people will reduce it to two syllables. The first syllable is stressed. We begin with
the PR consonant cluster, pr-, pr-. So the lips are together for the P, but the tongue
can already be in position for the R. Pr-, pr-, pro-. The first vowel is the AH as in
FATHER sound. The jaw does need to drop for that: pro-, pro-. The second syllable, unstressed,
proba-, -ba-, is the B consonant, where the lips come together, and the schwa sound. Proba-,
proba-. And the last syllable, the B consonant, and then the LY ending. Proba-bly, -bly. So
the lips come together for the B, and the tongue tip comes up here for the L, -bl-,
-bl-. And then we have the EE as in SHE vowel. Probably, probably.
As I said, some people will reduce this to two syllables, so you might here pro-bly,
-bly, without the middle syllable. Prob-ly, prob-ly. And sometimes you'll hear it without
the B at all: 'prolly', 'prolly', 'prolly'. Both of these reductions are used a lot.
For example: prob-ly: I'll probably be there. Prob-ly, prob-ly.
Or, 'prolly', 'prolly'. I'll probably forget. 'Prolly', 'prolly'.
That's it, your Word of the Week. Try it out yourself. Make up a sentence with the
word, record it, and post it as a video response to this video on YouTube. I can't wait to
watch it.
That's it, and thanks so much for using Rachel's English.

在这个美式英语发音视频中, 我们将复习
“probably”这个词的发音。
本周的本周词汇是“可能”。 “大概”是一个三音节的词,但有些
人会把它简化为两个音节。 第一个音节重读。 我们
从 PR 辅音簇 pr-, pr- 开始。 所以 P 的双唇合在一起,但 R 的
舌头已经就位。 Pr-, pr-, pro-。 第一个元音是
父音中的 AH。 下巴确实需要为此 下降:亲,亲。 第二个音节,无重读
,proba-,-ba-,是 B 辅音, 双唇合在一起,schwa 音。 概率-,概率-
。 最后一个音节,B辅音, 然后是LY结尾。 可能,-bly。
因此,B 音时双唇 合拢,L 音时舌尖向上,-bl-,-
bl-。 然后我们有 SHE 元音中的 EE。 大概,大概。
正如我所说,有些人会将其减少为 两个音节,因此您可能会在这里
-bly,没有中间音节。 大概, 大概。 有时你会在没有 B 的情况下听到它
:“prolly”、“prolly”、“prolly”。 这两种减少都被大量使用。
例如: prob-ly:我可能会在那里。 大概,大概。
或者,“prolly”,“prolly”。 我可能会忘记。 '普罗利','普罗利'。
就是这样,你的本周词汇。 自己尝试一下。 用这个词组成一个句子
,记录下来,并将其作为视频回复发布 到 YouTube 上。 我等不及
要看了。
就是这样,非常感谢您使用 Rachel 的英语。
