- 0 3000 Standard Chinese Modular Approach
- 3000 6000 Resource module on pronunciation and romanization
- 6000 8000 Tape 5
- 8000 11000 This tape will take up several abbreviations in pinyin spelling
- 11000 14000 A new vowel and a new consonant
- 14000 17000 Display 1 contains three cases of abbreviation
- 17000 21000 Listen to the speaker read the surnames in the first row
- 21000 26000 I'm one one
- 26000 29000 Listen again and notice that they run
- 29000 34000 I'm one one
- 34000 37000 Each of these syllables clearly has the vowel sound uh
- 37000 40000 But the last one is spelled without an e
- 40000 44000 We've supplied the e in the version in brackets to reflect the pronunciation
- 44000 47000 Notice, by the way, that the ton mark has wound up on the u
- 47000 50000 The only surviving vowel letter
- 50000 53000 Now listen to the names in the second row
- 53000 54000 say
- 54000 56000 way
- 56000 57000 way
- 57000 59000 Listen again, they run
- 59000 60000 say
- 60000 61000 way
- 61000 62000 way
- 62000 63000 way
- 63000 66000 Here, you'd expect g-u-e-i
- 66000 69000 Since the a sound is spelled e-i
- 69000 71000 But in fact, there is no e
- 71000 74000 Notice that the ton mark has shifted to the i
- 74000 76000 The last vowel letter
- 76000 78000 Now listen to the last row
- 78000 80000 hole
- 80000 82000 yo
- 82000 83000 leo
- 83000 85000 Listen again
- 85000 88000 Except for the tone, they run
- 88000 89000 hole
- 89000 90000 yo
- 90000 92000 leo
- 92000 95000 Here, you'd expect l-i-o-u
- 95000 97000 Since the sound o is spelled o-u
- 97000 99000 But in fact, there's no o
- 99000 101000 Notice that the ton mark has shifted to the u
- 101000 103000 The last vowel letter
- 103000 106000 We've been treating these spelling simply as abbreviations
- 106000 108000 But in fact, they make some kind of phonetic sense
- 108000 111000 It happens that vowels often have a slightly different quality
- 111000 113000 in the first and second tones
- 113000 116000 And in each of these cases, the abbreviated spelling
- 116000 118000 is suggestive of the first and second tones
- 118000 119000 pronunciations
- 119000 122000 For example, listen to the pairs of names in the
- 122000 124000 play too
- 124000 126000 yo
- 126000 128000 leo
- 128000 130000 leo
- 130000 132000 Perhaps you'll agree that you hear something
- 132000 134000 approaching a simple u sound after the
- 134000 137000 semi vowel in the first and second tones names
- 137000 139000 so that the spelling without the o
- 139000 141000 might be better for both of them
- 141000 144000 Listen again and notice that the pairs don't quite rhyme
- 145000 146000 yo
- 146000 147000 leo
- 147000 148000 leo
- 148000 149000 leo
- 150000 153000 Now listen to the speaker read down the columns
- 153000 155000 This way, you may better hear the rhymes
- 156000 157000 yo
- 157000 158000 leo
- 159000 160000 yo
- 160000 161000 leo
- 162000 163000 Again
- 163000 164000 yo
- 164000 165000 leo
- 166000 167000 yo
- 167000 168000 leo
- 168000 171000 This way, three presents a slightly different kind of abbreviation
- 171000 174000 Listen to the speaker read the names
- 175000 176000 leo
- 176000 177000 leo
- 177000 178000 leo
- 178000 179000 leo
- 179000 181000 Listen again and notice that they rhyme
- 181000 183000 All three end in o
- 184000 185000 leo
- 185000 186000 leo
- 186000 187000 leo
- 187000 188000 leo
- 189000 192000 In this case, the semi vowel is not written after m
- 192000 194000 There's no u
- 194000 197000 The same goes after other consonants involving the lips
- 197000 198000 b,p and f
- 199000 203000 The theory seems to be that the lip involvement of m,b,p and f
- 203000 207000 is sufficient to suggest the lip rounding of the semi vowel without writing u
- 208000 210000 Now try reading the names in exercise 1
- 210000 212000 and repeat after the speaker
- 213000 214000 one
- 215000 216000 one

- 855820 858020 For many speakers, the last pair rhymes.
- 858020 862460 The pronunciation would be better represented by the spelling in the parentheses,
- 862460 866380 with an E added for the S sound.
- 866380 869460 For many speakers, however, this pair doesn't rhyme.
- 869460 872740 The pronunciation is well represented by the actual spelling Y,
- 872740 875140 U-umn-lout, A-N.
- 875140 881140 We put the umlaut axid mark over the u's in display 5, but actual pinion spelling doesn't.
- 881140 889140 After a y, a u couldn't stand for anything but the u umlaut sound, and so pinion doesn't bother to add the two dots.
- 889140 893140 The same goes after the palatal consonants written j, q, and x.
- 893140 904140 Since these consonants pronounced with the tongue in the e position occur only before vowels pronounced with the tongue in the e position, namely e and e, or their semi-vol equivalents,
- 904140 909140 you know that a u after a j, q, or x must mean u umlaut.
- 909140 914140 Just to be helpful though, we'll write the umlaut for you every time in the early part of this course,
- 914140 920140 but just to get an idea of how the system works, try reading the names in exercise 5.
- 920140 927140 Pronouncing the letter u with the sound value y after y and the palatal consonants written j, q, and x,
