聽歌學口語

你還記得初學英語時我們小老師Lucy和Lily嗎？沒錯，Lily或是Lilly是我們非常熟悉的名字，但由於它們的發音和漢語中的“麗麗”很相近，許多人常常直接把Lilly讀作“麗麗”。事實上，漢語中[i]的發音和英語中[i]的發音還是有很大區別的。自己讀一讀“麗麗”，再和歌中的“Lilly”對比一下，是不是發現前者更爲清脆，而後者更圓潤自然呢？

[i]屬於48個國際音標中的短元音，故發音要短促而輕快。發這個音的時候嘴脣要微微張開，舌尖抵下齒，舌前部擡高，整個口型呈扁平狀。

訣竅：舌前部擡高

這個音的發音成敗就在這一個小動作上。所謂舌前部擡高，是說舌尖抵住下齒後，舌頭後面的部分微微擡起，抵住上顎，保持口型扁平，自然出聲，就能發出標準的[i]。而如果舌前部動作沒有到位，舌頭懶懶躺在下面，發出的就是漢語中的“麗麗”了。

Lyrics

Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!

Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!

One day she passed him by
A twinkle in her eye
He said " she was meant for me!"
But when he turned around
He lost what he had found
Oh where can his Lilly be?

Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!

He searched the city streets
He tempted her with treats
But nobody stopped to taste them
Some are in his pocket
Some are in a locket
He couldn't bring himself to waste them

Ever since she's gone
Some days he can't go on
She runined for another
Pressed up against the glass
He prays that she will pass
Now he's living with his mother

Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!

Lilly comes when you stop to call her
Lilly runs when you look away
Lilly leaves kisses on your collar
Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, Lilly, stay!

Stay, stay, stay, stay
