我和一位帮助开发“蒙台梭利字母发音”的女士聊了起来，这是一款教学龄前儿童蒙台梭利拼写方法的应用程序。

I fell into conversation with a woman who had helped develop Montessori Letter Sounds, an app that teaches preschoolers the Montessori methods of spelling.

古英语的日耳曼用户（在使用这套字母时）打翻了一堆的拉丁语对字母发音的规则，于是古英语的使用者们决定他们需要一个新的字母来发W的音。

The Germanic pronunciations of Old English broke a bunch of rules that the alphabet was supposed to observe in Latin and so Old English speakers decided they needed a new letter to make the W sound.

发音与字母之间没有一对一的关系。

There is no one-to-one correspondence between sounds and letters.

《牛津词典》

The actual fluctuation of your voice isn't something that's taught, but what they teach you is how to pronounce the letters properly, and rules that go along with the letters.

你声音的起伏不是别人教的,但是他们教会你的是,字母的正确发音，以及这些诵读这些字母的规则。

So there is about between 12-16 rules that are there if you learn them, just naturally your voice will take in fluctuation and intonations. So I had the opportunity to learn actually here in New Jersey from people.

大概有12至16条字母的发音规则,如果你学习了，那么很自然地你的声音,就会有起伏和音调,我当时正好有机会在新泽西学习这个。
