请教复数发音
请教：knees,toes的复数形式发/z/还是发/s/记不清元音、辅音的复数发音语法规则了。
Rule #1
If a word ends in a sound that is unvoiced (such as P,T,K,F), you add an
unvoiced /S/
Examples:
1 cup, 2 cups
(the ‘p’ in cup is unvoiced, so you just add an unvoiced ‘s’)
1 cat, 2 cats
(the ‘t’ in cat is unvoiced, so just add an unvoiced ‘s’)
I break, he breaks
I stop, he stops
Rule #2
If a word ends in any of these sounds: ‘s,z,sh,ch,or dg (j)’
when adding an ‘S’ ending, add…IZZZZZZ
Examples:
1 Page 2 Pages
1 Bus 2 Buses
1 Lunch2 Lunches
IRaise,He Raises
I Brush, He Brushes
I Push, He Pushes
Rule #3
If a word ends in a vowel sound (like the word Tree) or a voiced consonant (like
the word Game), then when you add an ‘S’, continue the voicing throughout
the entire word, and it should become a voiced ZZZZ.
Examples:
1 Tree, 2 Treezzzz(correctly spelled Trees)
1 Day, 2 Days
1 Shoe, 2 Shoes
I Fly, He Flies
1 Game,2 Games
1 Head,2 Heads
1 Train,2 Trains
1 Song, 2 Songs
Some common words where S’s are pronounced as Z’s
IS
HIS
AS
WAS
THESE
THOSE
EASY

谢谢啦，非常详细 绿袖子 发表于 2013-1-7 20:44不震动声带的音后读 /s/,震动声带的音后读/z/， 六个音后读/iz/. 不用记那么多规则。
谢谢柚子老师了。也就是说knees发／/z/,toes发／s/? 两者都发z，简单规则：元音和浊辅音后都发z。当然，实际上还有很多其他规则 两者都发z，简单规则：元音和浊辅音后都发z。
