Americans enjoy making things easy on themselves. Even their pronunciation is relaxed. Sounds or syllables that are not stressed are shortened or combined with other sounds. As a result, "What do you want to do?" becomes "Whaddaya wanna do?" And "I don't know" sounds like "I dunno." See if you can understand the following conversation:

Gene: Jeet yet?

Tim: No, ju?

Gene: Skoeet!

Now let's translate it into regular English:

Gene: Did you eat yet?

Tim: No, did you?

Gene: Let's go eat!

School teachers probably cringe at this kind of pronunciation. But the fact is, that's how Americans often talk in real-life situations.

美国人喜欢把事物简化，甚至连他们的发音也很轻松自在，不是重音的发音或是音节，通常会被缩短或是和其它的音相连。因此，「What do you want to do?」就变成了「Whaddaya wanna do?」而「I don't know.」听起来像「I dunno.」看看你能不能听懂以下的对话：

吉妮: Jeet yet?

提姆: No, ju?

吉妮: Skoeet!

现在，我们来把它翻译成一般的英文：

吉妮: Did you eat yet? （你吃过了没？）

提姆: No, did you? （还没有，你呢？）

吉妮: Let's go eat! （一块儿去吃吧！）

学校的老师们对这样的发音恐怕是不敢恭维。不过事实上，通常美国人在实际的生活中都是这么说话的.
