y母音i
ルールの核心
多音節語の弱勢音節では y が母音 i として機能し、/ɪ/ または弱化した /i/ で発音されます。子音 /j/ ではありません。
発音ガイド
舌は力を抜き前寄り、唇は軽く開く。息は短く弱く出します。
語例
ability、absurdity、activity では、-ty や -vi- の y が短い i の音になります。
注意点
二重母音 /aɪ/ にしないこと。強勢の位置を確認しましょう。
フォニックス分解
舌を前に軽く上げ、短く弱い i。
発音参照
- 強勢を確認すると判断しやすい。
- 弱い i として覚える。
Common Mistakes
常に /aɪ/ と読む。
アクセントを無視する。
