Plosives and Rhythms - (2-3)

 下面的失去爆破的音的存在是通过遇到这些音时（不发出来）短暂的停顿体现出来的：

 Stop eating / stop talking / he stopped talking.

More examples:

a pet hen / a pet duck / a pecked duck.
a dry tea-cup / a white tea-cup / a wiped tea-cup.
to knock out / knocked out / knocked down.
a hatter / an actor /act two.
to ask us / he asked us / he asked twice.
we hope it does / we hope to go / we hoped to go.
stop him / we stopped once / we stopped twice.
drop it ! / I dropped it / I dropped two.
kick him ! / kick Tom / he kicked Tom.

 

爆破音对语流的影响。
Smooth rhythms of the type duh Da duh (we have to) etc. are broken into the uneven rhythms of duh D’ duh (we had to) under the influence of certain combinations of plosives (p b t d k g).

We have to …  duh Da duh
We had to …  duh D(a) duh ( or: duh D’ duh)
