So with the word 'sex'. Something changes when it's followed by U, like in: sexual, sexuality, bisexual, sexualized.
关于“sex”这个词,当它后面跟着U时,会发生变化,比如:sexual、sexuality、bisexual、sexualized。
Now, instead of KS, the sounds we get are KSH. Ksshh. Kkk-sshh.
现在,不是KS音了,而是KSH,Ksshh, Kkk-sshh。
Sexual. So sex, sexy, we still have KS. But as soon as it's followed by U, sexual, sexual. It changes.
Sexual。所以,sex、sexy,还是有KS音。但只要后面跟着U,sexual、sexual,就变了。
We now have KSH. Sexual. And actually, I thought of one other word. The word 'luxury' this is also different.
现现在发KSH音,Sexual。实际上,我想到了另一个词,“luxury”这个词也是音不同。
It's just like 'sexual' only it's voiced, so it's G and then ddjjzz.
和“sexual”类似,只不过它是浊音,是G音,然后是ddjjzz。
Lugg– there's the G, lugggjjzz, gggjjzz, gggjjzz, gggjjzz and there's the gggjjzz sound. Luxury. Luxury.
Lugg,有G音,lugggjjzz、gggjjzz、gggjjzz、gggjjzz, 是gggjjzz 音,Luxury、Luxury。
I couldn't come up with any other words with this pronunciation.
我想不出有这种发音的其他单词,
