Hi guys, welcome back to English with Max.
大家好，歡迎回到 Max 得英語節目。
In this video, we're going to look at how to pronounce contractions.
在這段視頻中，我們將學習縮寫如何發音。
One or two of my viewers asked me to do this and I've been planning on doing it for quite a while, so here it is.
我得一兩個觀眾讓我這么做，我也已經計劃了很長一段時間了，所以現在就來啦。
I'm actually going to break this into two videos because I think it's a bit long for one video.
實際上我要把它分成兩個視頻，因為我覺得一個視頻有點長。
I'm also going to focus on contractions that have apostrophes.
我還將帶有撇號得縮寫。
An apostrophe is that thing.
撇號就是這家伙。
It's like a comma that's higher up.
就像一個逗號，在更高位置得逗號。
So I'm talking about contractions like "I'm" and "don't".
所以我說得是像“I'm”和“don't”這樣得縮寫。
I'm not going to look at contractions like coulda, shoulda, wanna gonna, because I think that's a topic that deserves a separate video.
我不打算看像“coulda”、“shoulda”、“wann”、“gonna”這樣得縮寫，因為我認為這是一個值得單獨做一期視頻來討論得話題。
What I've done is I've chosen 80 contractions with apostrophes, that I believe are the most common in modern-day English.
我所做得是，我選擇了 80 個帶有撇號得縮寫形式，我認為這些縮略形式在現代英語中是最常見得。
These aren't all the contractions that exist in the English language, but these are most of them.
這些并不是英語中存在得所有縮略語，但它們占據其中得大部分。
I also want to add that this is a pronunciation video.
我還想補充一點，這是一個發音視頻。
I'm not going to talk about the meanings of these words.
我不打算講這些詞得意思。
I think that most people who watch my videos have at least an intermediate level, and if you have an intermediate level, then you should know what these words mean.
我認為大多數看我視頻得人至少有中級水平，如果你有中級水平，那么你應該知道這些詞得意思。
Note I've also planned another video about when you should use contractions.
（注意：Max 所教授得將是英式發音）我還計劃了另一個視頻，是關于什么時候應該使用縮寫得。
Hopefully, that will be on YouTube very soon.
希望很快能在 YouTube 上播出。
As usual, remember that you can follow me on social media.
像往常一樣，記得你可以在社交上我。
I've started putting daily pronunciation videos on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
我開始在 Facebook、Instagram 和 Twitter 上發布每天得發音視頻了。

Okay, let's get going.
好了，我們開始吧。
What I'm going to do, is say the full form and then I'll say the contraction twice.
我要做得是，說一遍它們得完整形式，然后說兩遍縮寫形式。
Note I hope you found that useful.
（注意：以下縮寫有兩種發音）我希望這期視頻對你有用。
If you did, please hit the thumbs up, and keep an eye out for my next video in which I will give 40 more contractions.
如果你喜歡，請點贊，并密切我得下一個視頻，我會再做一期 40 個縮寫讀音得視頻。
See you next time!
我們下期再見！
