A schwa is a really reduced vowel sound.

即弱化。

Note that in American English, they say data, so the vowel sound is different.

请注意在美式英语里他们读的是data，不同。

So, before " up" , " up" , letter " u" is a vowel sound, " up" , so it's: " thee up, the up" .

所，在“up”之前，“up”，字母“u”是一个，" up" , 所念作: “thee up, 向上”。

Any vowel sound we can use this schwa sound.

任何都可读成个弱央。

When a word ends with a consonant sound and the next word begins with a vowel sound, we usually connect the two words, okay?

当一个单词结尾，下一个单词开头时，我们通常两个单词连在一起读。

It can be a vowel sound, a consonant sound, a whole syllable.

不发的可是，也可是或是整个节。

Now here are some words which have this vowel sound.

里有一些含有个的单词。

A word on pronunciation. We've got the expression: 'the rise and fall of', but said together, there's a lot of linking and some of the vowel sounds change.

多提一句有关发的问题。我们已经学了“the rise and fall of”个表达，但是放在一起说，有很多连读，一些也改变。

This sound is a little different from all of the other vowel sounds.

Vowel sounds are a good place to start.

是一个很好的出发点。

The vowels -- sounds you make with an open mouth – began to change.

此时，发声时嘴巴要张开的开始改变。

In the second example I said excuse me and do you know which word I'm really using? I'm definitely using, excuse me, but I'm dropping that first vowel sound and it sounds like skews.

在第二个例子中，我说了 " 对不起" ，你知道我真正用的是哪个词吗？我肯定用的是 " excuse me" ，但我去掉了第一个，听起来像是 " skews" 。

And it is the. It starts with an e sound, a vowel sound.

搭配 the。它是 e 开头的。

The vowels -- sounds you make with an open mouth -- began to change.

此时，发声时嘴巴要张开的开始改变。

There's a vowel sound at the end.

最后有一个。

The number of syllables in the word depends on the number of vowel sounds.

单词中节的数量取决于的数量。

For example, " cat" is a one-syllable word that contains one vowel sound.

例如，cat是包含一个的单节单词。

This is very common that a T between vowel sounds will sound like a D.

中间的 T 听起来像 D ，是很常见的。

When you say it faster, you can remove the vowel sound.

当你说的更快的时候，你可移除那个。

Then, we have assonance, vain, and travail so that long sort of vowel sound.
