ケヴァンの英語室のプロジェクトへようこそ!
こんにちは!
カンナさんからメッセージが!
カンナさん?
はい!
カンナさん、ありがとう!
おはようございます!
おはようございます!
今回は英語の発音に関して教えていただきたいことがあり、
DMさせていただきました。
もちろん!
それは
Oh
Uh
Walk
と
Uh
Walk
の発音です。
OK
アメリカ英語とイギリス英語だと発音が逆になる
ありませんか?
アメリカ英語はスペル通りに発音していて、
イギリス英語は日本語の
WalkとWalkに近いと思うのですが、
いつもどう発音しているのか混乱してしまいます。
お二人はどのように発音されていますか?
また、このような発音の違いで話が食い違ったことはありますか?
ぜひPodcastで取り上げてほしいです。
これからも面白いPodcastを楽しみにしています。
Thank you!
Thank you!
Can we get the timer on?
Oh sure!
Thanks!
I'll do it in like 9 minutes maybe?
Oh yeah, it's OK.
OK, so...
Walk and work
Yeah
歩く仕事する
歩く is walk
仕事する is work
Walk work
Walk work
Wow, OK
Walk work
Waとwerの違い
OK
What about British?
Actually I'm not a British guy.
I was born and raised in Japan.
OK, so I can imitate one.
Can you do it?
How would you pronounce it?
So, walk and work.
Work is working.
Is working.
作業
仕事
And walk is walking.
歩く
Sounds like the same with me.
Yeah, but maybe without 'r' sound.
OK, got it.
Like British people doesn't pronounce 'r' sound that much like compared to American people.
フォーク
ワーク
Yeah, that sounds like...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you think I'm doing it correctly?
I mean...
フォーク
Yeah, a little too...
A little too much?
Possibly, I mean...
But there's people who pronounce like that.
Yeah?
Like...
ワーク
ワーク
I've actually been practicing my British accent.
Oh, really?
Right.
I feel like I can do it smoothly.
Listen here.
My British accent.
Yeah?
A little bit more smoothly, don't you think?
Yeah, a little bit.
Right?
Work and work.
That's not the same.
OK.
Work and walk.
OK, OK.
Walk.
Walk when you use your fate.
When you use your fate, that's when you walk.
OK.
Let me pronounce that again.
Walk.
OK.
Right?
So, which was that?
03:01
When you use your fate.
Your what?
Right, when you use your fate on the ground.
When you're actually taking steps.
OK.
Right?
That's walk.
OK.
And then when you're actually...
Like, working as a team to accomplish something.
OK.
That's work.
OK.
Right?That's work.
Yeah, yeah.
So, do you feel the difference here?
Yeah, of course.
Work and work.
Yeah.
Sorry, let me do that again.
Walk and work.
Walk and work.
Yeah.
That's nice.
I don't think it's opposite, though.
It's not opposite.
It's not opposite.
But without R sound.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, it's not opposite.
That's what she articulated, right?
Right.
It's opposite.
イギリス英語だと発音が逆になりませんか?
So, it's not opposite.
It wouldn't be opposite.
It's just...
Yeah, what you said.
Yeah, without R sound.
Right.
Yeah.
But you're also good at doing Indian...
Oh, yeah, of course.
Indian English, right?
OK, let me get that.
Yeah.
OK.
OK.
OK.
OK.
