We've talked a little bit about rhoticity but mainly flap.

我们也讲到了一点儿化音，但主要是闪音。

There's even a fancy word to describe it—rhoticity—which is that solid R as in hard and far.

它甚至有个很花哨的名字——卷舌化——也就是hard和far里清晰可辨的R音。

So linking on from the flap which is number one, we're going to talk a little bit about rhoticity, which is number two.

所以闪音是第一个区别，下面我们来讲下第二个区别，儿化音。

There are regional dialects that are notable for lacking rhoticity, such as the classic Bostonian Pahk yah cah in Hahvahd Yahd for Park your car in Harvard Yard, but the overwhelming majority of Americans growl out the R.

也有些地区方言的显著特点就是没有卷舌化的现象，一个典型的例子就是波士顿人把Park your car in Harvard Yard（把你的车停在哈佛校园里）说成Pahk yah cah in Hahvahd Yahd，但是绝大多数美国人的R音还是很浓重的。
