Pitch and Volume(1) - Three ways of emphasizing

 

 

My telephone is disconnected.

在强调一个单词或一个意思时,我们经常听到的有以下三种方式:louder, longer and with higher pitch. 读的声音高一点,声音拉长一点, highpitch 中文很少对应的翻译,可能是因为(说)中文很少使用这个手段,但英语确是太普遍了,暂且把它叫做声频(或音频)吧,因为它于音的频率有关。( pitch -> frequency)
而声音的高低于音量有关 (loudness -> volume)。与音的振幅 (amplitude)有关。

这两个手段通常一起使用,再就是当声频和音量增加的时候,音也自然随着拖长乐,所以这三个手段往往是自然的一起出现。

 

 

 

Knowledge base of frequency and amplitude regarding pitch and volume (for you informaiton):

·  Wavelength; this is the distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next.
·  Frequency频率; this is the number of waves that pass a point in each second.
·  Amplitude []振幅; this is the measure of the amount of energy in a sound wave, a measure of how big the wave is.

 


Pitch (对应的中文在这儿可为:频率,声频,音频(率),音调) 与声音的频率(frequency)有关。频率高则声音高,频率低则声音低。
频率是指物体震动的快慢(频率高,音调高,就是尖锐的声音);在单位时间内完成全震动的次数;频率的单位是赫兹(Hz)。
High-pitched: 单位时间内音频高(high-frequency vs. low-frequency)。

This is how high or low a sound seems. A bird makes a high pitch. A lion makes a low pitch.

Volume(音强):又称响度,取决于声音的幅度。于振幅(Amplitude)有关。也即振幅决定声音的大小和强弱。振幅就是物体震动的幅度(振幅大,响度大);振幅是震动物体离开平衡位置的最大距离,叫震动的振幅。单位是:m;用 A来表示。了oudness of sound (high volume):  音的振幅 (amplitude)大 (loud vs. soft)。

The amplitude of a wave is measured as:

  1. the height from the equilibrium point to the highest point of a crest or
  2. the depth from the equilibrium point to the lowest point of a trough
