一个学生在学习说英式英语。他想知道:我是否能与美国人交流呢?他们能听懂我说的话吗?英语学习者经常会问类似下面这样的问题:英式英语和美式英语有什么不同?这些不同是不是很重要呢?它们之间当然存在着一些不同。语法方面有点儿不同。比方说:讲英式英语的人说“inhospital”和“Haveyougotapen?”,而美国人会说“inthehospital”和

“Doyouhaveapen?”。发音有时也会不同。像bird和hurt这样的单词,美音中通常包含“theirs”中的卷舌音,而英音中不包含卷舌音。拼写和词汇方面也存在一些差别。比如:“colour”和

“honour”是英式英语,而“color”和

“honor”是美式英语。

然而,它们在语法、发音及拼写和词汇方面的这些不同不是那么重要。在很大程度上,英式英语和美式英语是相同的一种语言。词海拾贝

1.wonder['wʌndə]vt.对……感到好奇;惊奇;感到诧异;想弄明白2.communicate[kə'mjuːnIkeIt]vi.传达;相通;交流3.honour['ɒnə]n.荣誉;尊敬难句剖析

Forexample,speakersofBritishEnglishsay“inhospital”and“Haveyougotapen?”,whileAmericanssay“inthehospital”and“Doyouhaveapen?”.while是连词,表示对比,意为“却;但是;然而”。句意:比方说,讲英式英语的人说:“inhospital”和

“Haveyougotapen?”,而美国人说:“inthehospital”和

“Doyouhaveapen?”。理解诱思
