🏔️ 如果你去犹他州（Utah），不妨留意当地人是怎么读 “mountain” 这个词的！👂在当地口音中，单词里的 t 往往会变成喉塞音（类似英文 “uh-oh” 中间的停顿），而 -tain 这一部分也会被大幅弱化，因此听起来更像 “moun’-n”。🗣️✨👉你还知道哪些英语单词在实际发音时会出现不发音的字母，或者某个音节被弱化、省略的情况吗？欢迎在评论区分享你的发现！💬#美国建国两个半世纪#

If you visit Utah, pay attention to how the locals pronounce the word "mountain"! 👂The t sound usually becomes a glottal stop (like the break in “uh‑oh”), and the final ‑tain gets reduced so much that it’s almost just ’n.
→ So instead of “moun-tin,” it’s moun’‑n. 🏔️
