Native speaker在輕松的日常對話中，語調(diào)常不自覺加快而出現(xiàn)連音，這和課堂中所教授的標準英文是非常不一樣的。這種連音在美劇中就比較常見，不少人由于不懂連音而聽得一頭霧水。要想說一口漂亮的地道口語，你就得學會說這些連音哦。

your / you're → yer

我們來聽一段對話。在第一遍中，會將每句話先用較慢的語速念一遍，再用較快的語速念一遍；第二遍則是完整的快速對話。要注意快速狀態(tài)下 your / you're 的連音發(fā)音喲。

Listen to each part of the conversation: first spoken with careful (slow) pronunciation; then spoken with relaxed (fast) pronunciation.

CARLOS: Maria? Maria Gonzalez? My gosh! Yer so tall now.

MARIA: Carlos! My old neighbor! Wow! Yer looking great.

CARLOS: Thanks. So ... how's yer family?

MARIA: They're fine. How about your family?

CARLOS: They're fine, too.

MARIA: That's good. Does yer mother still volunteer at a school?

CARLOS: Yes, she does.

MARIA: That's great. Yer mother's a really nice person.

CARLOS: Yer right. She is. So, does yer father still sing with his friends?

MARIA: Every weekend.

Listen to the entire conversation again, spoken with relaxed (fast) pronunciation.?

大家有沒有注意到MARIA的這句話，"They're fine. How about your family?" 中仍然說的是 your 而不是 yer ，這是因為如果在句子中需要強調(diào) your / you're 時，它們就不再發(fā)成yer。此句中MARIA強調(diào)問：“你”家里如何？因此還是念做your。
