Hello everybody,
I transcriped an excerpt from "winnie the pooh" on the standards of the Cambridge English Pronouncing Dictionary by Jones; General American.
I am not a native speaker and had traoubles to figure out the stress and also different connencted speech features like assimilation, ellison and so on. I would really appreciate it if you tell me your opinion about my results and let me know which words/parts you would transcribe differntly.
here the original text:
“Terrible and Sad,” sad Pooh, “because Eeyore, who is a friend of mine, has lost his tail.
And he’s moping about it. So could you very kindly tell me how to find it for him?”
“Well,” said Owl, “the customary procedure in such cases is as follows.”
“What does Crustimoney Proseedcake mean?” said Pooh.
“For I am a Bear of very Little Brain, and long words Bother me.”
transcription:
/ ˈterəbəl ænd sæd | sed puː | bɪˈkɑːz ˈiːɔːr | huːz ə frend əv maɪn | həz lɑːst ɪz teɪl ən hiːz moʊpɪŋ əˈbaʊt ɪt | soʊ kədʒu ˈveri ˈkaɪndli tel miː haʊ tə faɪnd ɪt fɚ ɪm | wel | sæd aʊl | ðə ˈkʌstəmeri prəˈsiːdʒɚ ɪn sʌtʃ keɪsɪz ɪz | əz ˈfɑːloʊz | hwʌt dəz ˈkrʌstiˌmʌni prəsiːdkeɪk miːn | səd puː | aɪ əm ə ber əv ˈveri ˈlɪt̬əl breɪn ən lɑːŋ wɝːdz ˈbɑðɚ mi /
Thanks a lot
