英语单词的重音规则.doc

七大特殊单词重音规则
1、 英语中派生词得重音与词根重音一致。 派生词就就是一些有同样词根得词。比如: act, active, actively 'pare 'parison
2、 带有下列后缀得词:ary, ery, ory, ism, ist, mony, ment, ary等,重音通常在第一个音节上。例如: customary scientist slavery factory realism
3、 带下列前缀得词:a, ab, ac, ad, al, be, con, de, dis, em, en, in, mis, re, tans, un重音通常在第二音节上。例如: a'bout ab'duce ac'cede ad'mire be'long con'sult de'tect dis'like
4、 带下列后缀得词:aim, ain, cur, eem, duce, ere, firm, gn, oin, oke, ose, pt, rce, self, ume重音通常在第二音节。 contain occur sincere design confirm
5、 带下列后缀得词:ade, ain, ee, eer, esque, ette, ique, ine, oon重音通常在最后一个音节。这些词一般都就是从法语中借来得词。例如: emplo'yee an'tique maga'zine ci'gar volun'teer gaso'line
6、 带下列后缀得词:eous, ial, ian, ic, ics, ient, ion, ious, ish, it, liar, sive, tal, uous重音通常在倒数第二音节上。例如: oc'casion re'lation as'tonish de'posit mu'sician
7. 但就是有些派生词,比如从名词派生出来得形容词,它得重音就得发生变化,通常就是后移。 例如: 'science scien'tific 'accident acci'dental 'democrat demo'cratic 'politics po'litical
其实,英语词汇得重音位置通常就是有规律得。例如:有些双音节词汇做名词时重音往往落在首音节上;而做动词时,重音就落在第二音节上了。这些词汇常见得有:addict,accent,abstract,annex等。
可见,掌握好并读准单词得重音有一定得规律可循。
