sound a vowel的意思|示意

A vowel says its first sound when followed by a consonant in the same syllable .

记住，如果单词以辅音结尾，而其后的单词又是以元音开始，那它们就会很自然地形成连读。

A Syllable is a nonsignificant composite sound, made up of a mute and a Letter having a sound (a vowel or semivowel); for GR, without an a, is just as much a Syllable as GRA, with an a.

音节是由一个哑音字母和一个发声字母(元音或者半元音)构成的无意义的复合声音，没有A时GR是一个音节，而有a时gra也是一个音节。

In articulating a long vowel, the vowel-sound is sustained a long duration. The other vowels in English are relatively long.

发双元音时，从一个元音滑向另一个元音。例如。

For example, in many languages the vowel sound "I" is associated with smallness-little, tiny, petit, nino, and so on-whereas the sound "a" or "o" is associated with largeness-grand, gross, gordo, etc.

举例来说，在许多语言中，元音“i”与小相联系，如little, tiny, petit, nino等等——反之，元音“a”，“o”与大有关，如grand, gross, gordo等等。
