🔊 发音对比

easy - difficult

/ˈiːzi/ - /ˈdɪfɪkəlt/

simple - complex

/ˈsɪmpəl/ - /ˈkɒmpleks/

obvious - obscure

/ˈɒbviəs/ - /əbˈskjʊə/

发音要点:

  • 注意重音位置变化:obvious(重音在第一个音节),obscure(重音在第二个音节)
  • "difficult"中的"cult"发音为/kəlt/,不是/kʌlt/
  • "complex"作形容词读/ˈkɒmpleks/,作名词读/ˈkɒmpleks/或/kəmˈpleks/

💡 顾老师纠音:常见发音错误:

  • 把"difficult"读成/dɪ'fɪkʌlt/(正确:/ˈdɪfɪkəlt/)
  • "obscure"的/sc/发/sk/音,不是/s/
  • "complex"重音位置错误
