教你發(fā)美音Course #2LESSON 4 : REVIEWING DIFFICULT CONSONANTS
SECTION I : "R" and "L" {Counter #.................}
[LANGUAGE NOTE : The American-style initial R-Sound should be practiced by speakers of all other first language groups. Of course, R/L confusion usually takes place with speakers of East Asian language -- those of JAPAN, CHINA, KOREA, and SOUTHEAST ASIA. Be particularly careful not to insert the extra vowel sound when the "R" follows other consonants if you are a speaker of HINDI (and other subcontinent languages), ARABIC, FARSI, and TOGOLOG.
L4/S1-A : THE "R" (consonant) Phonetic Symbol : [ r ]
Here are a few more drills for the R-shaded vowels.
| repeat | rid | rest | rat | root | rookie | rough |
| run | rake | roast | rye | round | royal | rear |
| rural | rotten | roar | tree | free | trip | grid |
| Fred | tread | true | brew | crook | broad | trust |
| crop | tropic | grade | thrill | chrome | grown | freight |
| trial | crowd | proud | Troy | broil | trash | crash |
