英式英语和美式英语的区别

American: elevator (电梯) British: lift American: sidewalk (人行道) British: pavement American: apartment (公寓) British: flat American: movie theater (电影院) British: cinema American: eggplant (茄子) British: aubergine American: cookie (饼干) British: biscuit American: french fries (薯条) British: chips American: chips (薯条或薯片) British: crisps American: pants (裤子) British: trousers American: trash can, garbage can (垃圾桶) British: dustbin American: two weeks (两周) British: a fortnight 语言提示:pants(裤子)一词在英国有特殊含义,它指的是男士underwear(内裤)。 美式英语和英式英语的语法差异 美式英语和英式英语的语法大部分相同,不过还是有一些差异。虽然这些差异不一定都很明显,但如果能认出它们是美国人通常用have来表示拥有(财产);而说英国人有时会有have got。 American:?I?have?a car. British:?I've got?a car. American:?Do you have?a cellphone? British:?Have you got?a mobile phone? 美国人经常用一般过去式表示最近发生的事。相比之下,英国人常用现在完成时。 ? American:?Elijah already?returned?from London. British:?Ella?has?already?returned?from New York. American:?I just?went?shopping. British:?I've?just been shopping. 在遇到例如?team?和?family?这样的集合名词时,说美式英语的人用动词的单数形式,而说英式英语的人则用复数

英式英语和美式英语的区别

英式英语和美式英语的区别 标准现代英式英语(简称英语)和标准美式英语(简称美语)的区别说大不大,说小也不小,但是两者互相理解没有任何实质性的问题。此文的目的是对两者的区别进行一个大概的比较,给有兴趣的朋友一个参考,但并不能作为学习另一种口音的教材。其中也漏洞百出,若有不尽之处,还请高人指正补充。 元音: 英语和美语的发音最大的区别之一在它们对浑元音(schwa,音标中的倒写e,)的处理。英语中,浑元音在单元音中常通发生在一些非重读的短音a(如about)和短音er(如computer)上。美语中的er很少为浑元音,并有时对短音i(如sentimental,actuality)和u(如wuss),甚至短音的oo(如:hooker)采用了浑元音。(这四个例子在英语中的发音分别为[i], [i], [u:], [u])浑元音的读音是不定的,但是听起来差不多像一个急促的介于“俄”和“啊”的发音。英语和美语的发音最具代表性的区别是对er的发音的不同。英语中,短音的er是如上所述的浑元音,但长音的er也不过是个拉长了的浑元音,听起来是一个很夸张的介于“俄”和“啊”的声音。而美语中,er听起来怎么都是个“儿”音(例外是一些俗语中发成浑元音)。ar:除了轻读短音(如singular)和者后连元音(如clarity),英语的ar全部清一色的长音[a:],而美语中,是“阿尔”。事实上,凡是有r在一个音节尾部的时候,美英发音通常都是不一样的,如tour(英:吐啊,美:吐儿),tear(英:踢啊,美:踢儿),pair(英:pe啊,美:pe 儿)。甚至在刚才提到的clarity中,英语['kleriti],美语['kle儿r(er)ti] 元音的发音中还有一个比较重要的区别。一是[o]音:短音的o(如often),英语中发音仅仅为一个缩短了的长音o(如or),而美式的短音o听起来和英语的短音[/\]很像,同时长音o 后面如果有r都通常像上一段里说的那样儿化了,没有的话(如plausible, applause)就自动变成了一个短音的o的发音。 另外对u,i和其他元音组合的浑元音化,前面提到了一些,其他就*大家自己体会了。 辅音: 英语的辅音和美语的辅音是基本一样的,但在使用习惯上有些差别。比较重要的也只有以下两个: r:字母r简直是代表了英美两国的所有差别,到处都是它。在做辅音时,其实差别也就是当r在第一个词的词尾,而第二个词以元音开头,英语把r完全当作元音处理,而美语会把r连读当作后面一个词的开头元音的辅音,如词组clear animosity,英语会读成clear|animosity,而美语会读成clear-ranimosity。 另一个比较明显的区别是d和t。在一部分非重读音节中(如paddle,rattle, actuality),英语会清楚地发音这两个字母,但在美语中d和t常常会被模糊成一个很难解释的音,跟其它的语言比较,如果你知道西班牙语或者意大利语,它跟短弹音r很接近;如果你懂日语,那么らりるれろ行的辅音很像。如果你都不知道,那么最接近的解释就是边音l了,但是差了那么一节,就看你自己体会了。 还有一点,history, factory这些词,大家可能都发现o的发音(是一个浑元音)在很多音标标注中都是打了括号的。在英国,英语受文言文的影响喜欢省略这个o,而在美国,这个o 常常是发了音的。(如果大家对文言文或者诗歌感兴趣,会发现很多浑元音的字母是用一个单引号'表示的,表示省略) 拼写: 英语和美语的拼写无非有以下几种区别: -re和-er:部分以re结尾的词在美语中以er结尾,如: metre/meter, centimetre/centimeter, theatre/theater, centre/center等等

英式英语和美式英语该选哪一种

英式英语和美式英语该选哪一种呢? I’m the parent of a seven-year-old boy, and I’m going to teach him English. To tell the truth, I prefer British English to American English. But in the real world the American one seems to be more popular. Could you tell me which one I should choose? 我有一个七岁的男孩,我想教他英语。说实在的,相对于美式英语来讲,我更喜欢英式英语。但在现实生活中,美式英语似乎更流行一些。您能告诉我该选哪一种吗? Choose American English: that’s likely to be more useful to your son, especially in south-east Asia. However, please note the following: λThere’s hardly any differ ence at all between British and American English. The main difference is phonological (the way the language is spoken). Differences in vocabulary and spelling are very limited and there are hardly any differences at all in structure. Of course, for adults, the range of reference can vary between BrE and AmE. British English has a European range of reference. AmE and AusE similarly reflect the references of the geographical locations. This is one reason why AmE and AusE are so important in SE Asia. Whatever you teachλyour son, he will end up speaking Chinese English. This is inevitable. However, if he has been taught American English, he will be trained to understand this right from the start. A lot of learners find spoken standard American English harder to understand than spoken standard British English. English is aλ world language. People are learning it worldwide because they have the expectation that they will be able to use the language they have learned in any part of the world. The dominance of English has historical reasons relating back to the British Empire, but its widespread use today is largely due to American influence worldwide. Here are some reasons why people learn English: -political: English may be a neutral means of communication between different language groups in a large country: e.g. India. -economic: English is the language of trade, business and tourism. -practical: English is the language used by air traffic controllers, in academic conferences, etc. -scientific and technical: most scientific information is published and retrieved in English; the language of the Internet is English. -entertainment: the language of films, videos, computer games, etc. is largely English. 选美式英语:这对你的儿子可能会更有用,尤其是在东南亚。但要注意以下几点: λ英式英语和美式英语之间并没有太多的区别。主要的区别是语音方面的(即英语的说法)。词汇和拼写上的区别是很有限的,结构上就更是没有什么区别。当然,对于成人来说,英式英语和美式英语之间的关联范围可能是有差别的。英式英语具有欧洲的关联范围,而美式英语和澳洲英语也反映了地理位置的关联。这也是美式英语和澳洲英语在东南亚这么重要的原因。

美式英语与英式英语的不同

美式英语与英式英语的差别 在一定意义上说,美语是在英语基础上分离出来的一个支系,或者如某些语言学家们 所说的,美语是一支一直在美洲土地上的英语.虽然英语和美语两种语言的主体部分(语法、词汇、读音、拼写等)是相同的,但最重要的是美语在其发展过程中受其独特的历史、文化、民族、地域等各种因素的影响,形成了自己的特点,与英语有显著不同。英语和美语 的主要差异表现在词汇、读音、拼写及说话的气质等方面,尤其是某些词汇的表示意思。一、常见词汇差别 1) Trousers / Pants:当刚从美国回来的英国小伙子赞美“Nice Pants”,这时,杯具发生了。Trousers,Pants这两个单词的用法应特别留意。Pants在英国指内裤,但在美国却是长裤。在英国,长裤为 trousers。所以,当一位外国人说 Pants的时候,你要弄清楚他究竟是 英国人还是美国人,不要把内裤变成了长裤哦。 2) Crisps ,(Potato) Chips / French Fries: Chips在美国是土豆片,而在英国Chips就由薯 片变成薯条了。而要想在美国点薯条吃,得说French Fries。所以,不要搞混吃到你不想吃的东西哦。 3) Fizzy drink / Soda:在伦敦玩儿了一天,口渴了,怎样才能用地道的英式英语买汽水?那一定得说Fizzy Drink。而在美国可以说soda,soda pop或者干脆说pop。 4) Lift / Elevator:一个美国人在英国,问:“How can I get to 20th floor?”英国人说:“Take a lift.”美国人就疯了:“Ok, but who can be so strong to lift me to 20th floor?”在英国,如果你不想爬楼梯,你可以搭lift。如果你在美国的话,你就只好搭elevator了,没有人会把你抬上去的哦! 5) Film / Movie:film是英式英语,除了电影外,还有picture/photo的意思。同时film也表示“胶卷”就是音译的菲林 movie,是美式英语,只表示电影,不能表示照片、图片等。去看电影可以用 go to the movie(美)或者 go to the cinema(英),但绝不能用go to the film,不然也会闹笑话的。 6) Petrol / Gas:英国小伙子到了美国搭车,说:“Can I ride to New York?”美国人很热情,“Sure, my car has full tank of gas.”英国小伙子一听害怕了: “Well, no, thank you. I still want to live.”在这里,英式英语中汽油是“Petrol”而Gas是“煤气、瓦斯”的意思,怪不得英国小伙子害怕呢,他可不想坐上马上就要爆炸的“亡命
