英语口语中的升降调(/\).
这个调不常用。它通常用来表达某种情绪,不只是简单的陈述事实。
降升调(\/)调经常用来暗示一些没有直白明确表达出来的意思;而升降调则是用来强调已经表达出来的意思。下面我们列出一些会用掉降升调的情景:
1. 用来表达强烈的、通常是积极的、情绪。
例如:
* It's a(/)ma(\)zing! Unbe(/)lie(\)vable!
2. 用来展示强烈的认同或热情。
例如:
* That's such a (/)good (\)idea.
* That's really a (/bril(\)liant idea.
3. 用来表达讽刺或对比。
例如:
* Oh, that's just (/)per(\)fect. (其实糟透了!)
* -- He's the smartest guy I know.
-- (/)Real(\)ly? (不是吧?)
4. 用来纠正别人的错误说法。
例如:
* -- The meeting is on Tuesday.
-- No. It's on (/)Wednes(\)day.
5. 用来提醒、警告别人
例如:
--- (/)Look (\)out!
-- (/)Watch (\)out!
6. 用来表达震惊。
-- You (/)di(\)dn't!
对比下面的句子:
句子 | 语调 | 表达的意义 |
It was good. | \ | 事实陈述,不涉及到情绪。 |
It was good? | / | 问句,表达不确定。 |
It was (\/) good ... | \/降升调 | But ... there was a problem. |
It was a(/)ma(\)zing! | /\升降调 | 强烈的情绪! |
升降调不是中性调,它不是用来表达式事实的,而是用来表达情绪的。
* I had a (\)wonderful time! 表达事实
* I had a (/)won(\)derful time! 表达讽刺或者其它情绪
总结:
功能 | 例句 | 传达意义/情绪 |
表达强烈、积极的情绪 | That's (/)fan(\)tastic! | 说话者很开心,很震撼 |
表达热情的认同 | (/)Abso(\)lutely | 强烈认同! |
表达讽刺、不相信 | (/)Nice (\)job. | 言不由衷地讽刺 |
纠正别人的说法 | Today is (/)Thurs(\)day! | 你确定错了!我纠正你! |
警告!提醒别人 | (/)Watch (\)out! | 小心! |
