| 释义 | 〔chirren〕The linguistic process of ellipsis allows for the deletion within words of some internal sounds, such as weakly stressed syllables and less prominent consonants.This process caused Old Englishheafod ultimately to become Modern English head, losing its internal v sound (spelled f in Old English). Ellipsis is still an active process in American regional dialects.For example, inchirren both the l and the d of children are omitted in favor of the more conspicuous r. 轻音和次要辅音等语言上的省略过程造成单词某些内部音素的缺乏。这一过程导致古英语中的heafod 省略词中内部音素 V （古英语中拼写成 f ）而最终变成现代英语中 head 一词。 在美国的地区方言中活力过程仍然起着作用。例如，为了在chirren 一词中突出更显著的音素 r ，将 children 中的 l 和 d 两个音素都省略了 |
