Recognizing and making the ‘aai’ sound

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฑ De aai-klank herkennen en maken

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

In deze les leer je over de aai-klank.

In het Internationaal Fonetisch Alfabet heeft deze klank het teken /aj/.ย 

De aai-klank is een pseudodiftong of onechte tweeklank. Dat betekent dat, net als bij een diftong, meerdere klanken samen รฉรฉn klank vormen. Maar bij een pseudodiftong is de tweede klank een medeklinker en blijft het goed hoorbaar dat de klank uit twee klanken bestaat.ย 

Voorbeelden van Nederlandse woorden met de aai zijn:

aaien ps tweeklank aai

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง to wave

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง boring

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Mondvorm

De aai-klank start met de mondvorm van de lange aa-klank. Dat betekent dat je je kaak ver laat zakken en je tong laag in je mond laat liggen. Van de lange aa-klank ga je naar de j-klank: je beweegt de achterkant van je tong tegen je gehemelte aan. Het geluid blijft achter in je mond.

In deze video leggen we uit hoe je de aai-klank precies maakt.

Taalvergelijking

De aai-klank bestaat niet alleen in het Nederlands. Laten we kijken naar andere talen. In de volgende tabel staat voor zes talen aangegeven of de aai-klank voorkomt in die taal.

Er zijn natuurlijk nog veel meer talen, dus als jouw taal hier niet tussen staat of de klank niet heeft, kun je deze vergelijken met een taal die wel een voorbeeld heeft.

Klankverwarring in het Nederlands

Binnen het Nederlands zijn er ook andere klanken die op de aai-klank lijken. De aai-klank kan bijvoorbeeld verward worden met de lange aa-klank (/a/). Dat komt doordat je de aai-klank op dezelfde manier start als de lange aa-klank. Maar de aai-klank is een pseudodiftong. Dat betekent dat er na de lange aa-klank nog een klank komt: de j-klank.

Vergelijk maar eens:

gaai ps tweeklank aai
  • ThePlus Audio

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง jay (bird)

  • ThePlus Audio

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง (to) go

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

Ook de ooi-klank (/oj/) wordt in sommige gevallen verward met de aai-klank. De klanken lijken op elkaar, omdat het beide pseudodiftongen zijn die op dezelfde manier zijn opgebouwd: een lange klank + een j-klank. Het verschil is dat de aai-klank start met de lange aa-klank en de ooi-klank met de lange oo-klank.ย
