1．音节以元音为主体构成的发音单位，一般说来元音发音响亮，可以构成音节，辅音发音不响亮，不能单独构成音节（[m] [n] [ ] [l]例外）。从单词拼写形式上看，有几个元字组就有几个音节。 |
|
2．音节的划分①在两个音节的相邻处有两个辅字组时，一个辅字组属于前面的音节，一个属于后面的音节。
例如：let-ter mem-ber chil-dren daugh-ter
②在两个音节的相邻处只有一个辅字组时，如果前面音节里的元音是长音则辅字组属于后面一个音节，如果前面一个音节里的元音是短音，则辅字组属于前面一个音节。
例如：长音pa-per stu-dent fa-ther ze-ro mo-tor far-ther
短音sev-en stud-y moth-er ver-y mod-le weath-er |
|
3．重读音节单词中读音特别响亮的音节。用音标标记双音节、多音节词的读时，应使用重读符号。单音节词多数是重读音节，标记读音时不需要使用重读符号。 |
|
4．开音节①绝对开音节：单个元音字母后面没有辅字组的重读音节。例如：no blue ba-by stu-dent se-cret.
②相对开音节：单个元音字母后面加单个辅音字母，再加一个不发音字母e构成的重读音节。例如：namethesebikehomeex-cuse. |
|
5．闭音节单个元音字母后面有辅字组（r w y 除外）且以辅字组结尾的重读音节。例如：bageggfishnotcup |
|
6．双音节词重读规则双音节词的第一个音节通常是重读音节。
例如：′stu-dent ′Chi-na ′sec-ond ′au-tumn in-′deed
含有a- be- de- re- in- ex- 等前缀的双音节词往往是在第二个音节上重读。双音节词的重读位置不会因增加前缀或后缀而发生改变。例如：
a′bout be′fore ex′cuse re′pair for-′get-ful in-′ven-tor |
|
7．多音节词重读规则多音节词通常在倒数第三个音节重读。
例如：′el-e-phant con-grat-u-′la-tion
词尾有-ic 或-tion,-sion 的词，在-ic或-sion,-tion前的一个音节上重读。例如：scien′tific im′pression ′nation |
|
不符合0-02规则的词 celebrate(cel-e-brate)
划分音节时不能把字组拆分到两个音节中去（chil-dren)；br pr bl pl等辅音连缀是不是要当成字组来对待？有时又要考虑到词的来源（ward-room)，这时并没有把dr看成是一个字组。
How to divide a word when writing or typing
When writing or typing it is sometimes neccessary to divide a word at the end of the line because there is not enough space for the complete word. This division is always shown by adding a hyphen(-) immediately after the first part of the divided word at the end of the line. Many people prefer not to divide words at all (especially when writing by hand), but if you do, here are three considerations to help you.
1. By syllable
This means dividing the word into syllables or units of sound. For example, the word kind has one syllable, kind·ly has tow, un·kind·ly has three ad un·kind·li·ness has four.
2. By structure
This means dividingthe word into the smaller units of meaning such as anti-, dis-, un-, ect(as in anti·sep·tic, dis·ap·pear, un·able) or an ending(a suffix) such as -age, -able, -fully(as in post·age, agree·able, grate·fully).
3. By meaning
This means deciding whether each part of the divided word can be understood or spoken so that the complete word is easily recongnised from the two parts. For example, it may be a compound word made up of two different words, such as spotand lightin spot·light.
All three considerations must be used to decide whether and where you can divide a word. Here are six useful rules to help you:
1. Never divide a word within a syllable.
2. Never divide an ending (a suffix) of two syllables such as -able, -ably, -fully.
3. With the exception of -ly, never divide a word so that an ending of two letters such as -ed, -er, -icbegins the nest line.
4. Never divide a word so that one of the parts is a single letter.
5. Never divide a word of one syllable.
6. Never divide a word of less than five letters.
