Hey guys! I'm Emma from mmmEnglish and

welcome to another video lesson! This is

actually part 2 of a video series about

silent letters in English words so if

you want to watch part 1,

you can watch it here or here... I can't

remember where... I never remember where!

Anyway, or the links in the

description under this video so you can

find it there. In part one of the video

we went through silent letters that are

in the first half of the alphabet, so

from A to L. So, we've still got half to

go. But luckily for you the letter M is

usually pronounced and so you don't have

to worry about the letter M. N on the

other hand, you do have to worry about!

Now, before i explain i want to show you

the difference between M and N so that

you can hear and you can see the

difference in my mouth when I'm

explaining because it can get a bit

confusing! So, M you'll see that all of

my lips are touching, all the way along,

like in the word 'mum' or or in 'mmmEnglish'

or 'Emma'. The letter N; my mouth is open

actually and it's my tongue that's doing

the work. So, my tongue is lifting to the

roof of my mouth, behind my teeth; N, N.

So, now you can see the difference

between M and N. It's important because

when i'm explaining the silent letter N

it actually is silent when it's next

to M. Confusing, huh?

Let's look at some examples!

DAMN (like damn it!)

HYMN (a song that you sing in church)

The letter P can also be silent in words

like receipt psychology and psycho.

Now, remember that P can also be silent

or it changes when it's next to a H

and together PH can often mean and F

sound, like in the examples paragraph and

telephone. Now the letter R is not silent

in American English but it can be in

British English and also Australian

English. If you think about words like

'butter', 'butter', the R at the end of the

word is not pronounced. Now an S can also

be silent and i know that you've already

struggled with this one!

and AISLE (the bride walked down the aisle)

So, an S can be a little

bit sneaky, that one! Now, the letter T can

also be a bit sneaky and it can also be

silent. Like in these examples and

there's quite a few!

Cheeky little T!

Now the letter U can also be

silent and i bet you didn't think of

that letter when we started talking

about silent letters in English! But it's

quite common. Have a look at all of these

examples of really common english words. Words like,

It's also not usually pronounced in

adverbs like 'beautifully', 'wonderfully'.

The letter W is silent when it's at the

start of a word before the letter R. Like,

It's also not pronounced in these common

words:

Well that's it for silent letters and

for the silent letter series. If you've

got any questions or comments just put

them into the comments section under

this video so i can get back to you!

大家好！ 我是 mmmEnglish 的 Emma，

欢迎来到另一个视频课程！ 这

实际上是关于英语单词中无声字母的视频系列的第 2 部分，

所以如果

你想观看第 1 部分，

你可以在这里或这里观看……我不

记得在哪里……我不记得在哪里！

无论如何，或

此视频下描述中的链接，以便您可以

在那里找到它。 在视频

的第一部分中，我们浏览了字母表前半部分的无声字母，

从 A 到 L。所以，我们还有一半

要做。 但幸运的是，字母 M

通常是发音的，所以你

不必担心字母 M. N，

另一方面，你必须担心！

现在，在我解释之前，我想向您展示

M 和 N 之间的区别，以便

您在我解释时可以听到并看到

我嘴里的区别，

因为它可能会有点

混乱！ 所以，你会看到我所有的

嘴唇都在触摸，一路上，

就像在“妈妈”或“mmmEnglish”

或“Emma”这个词中。 字母 N； 我的嘴实际上是张开的

，是我的舌头

在工作。 所以，我的舌头

在我的牙齿后面抬起到我的上颚； N，N。

所以，现在你可以看到

M 和 N 之间的区别了。这很重要，因为

当我在解释无声字母 N 时，

它实际上在 M 旁边时是无声的

。令人困惑，是吗？

让我们看一些例子！

该死（该死！）

赞美诗（你在教堂里唱的一首歌

） 字母 P 也可以在

收据心理学和心理等词中保持沉默。

现在，请记住 P 也可以是无声的，

或者当它与 H 相邻时它会发生变化，

并且 PH 通常可以表示和 F

发音，例如示例段落和

电话中。 现在字母 R

在美式英语中不是无声的，但它可以是

英式英语和澳大利亚

英语。 如果您考虑诸如

“黄油”，“黄油”之类的单词，则单词末尾的R

不发音。 现在一个 S 也

可以保持沉默，我知道你已经

在这个问题上苦苦挣扎了！

和 AISLE （新娘走过过道）

所以，一个 S 可能

有点鬼鬼祟祟，那个！ 现在，字母 T

也可以有点偷偷摸摸，也可以

保持沉默。 就像在这些例子中一样，

还有很多！

调皮的小T！

现在字母 U 也可以是

无声的，我敢打赌

，当我们开始

谈论英语中的无声字母时，你没有想到那个字母！ 但这

很常见。 看看所有这些

真正常见的英语单词的例子。 像，

它通常也不会在

像“美丽”，“美妙”这样的副词中发音。

当字母 W 位于字母 R 之前的单词开头时，它是无声的

。就像，

它在这些常用

词中也不发音：

嗯，对于无声字母

和无声字母系列来说就是这样。 如果您

有任何问题或意见，请将

它们放在此视频下方的评论部分，

以便我回复您！
