Notes below are from [5].

Type

There are two main types of microphone: dynamic and condenser. Each has qualities that work well with recording voice tracks. When considering this aspect of your mic section, you really need to think about your recording environment. If you are recording in a professional studio then choosing a condenser is a great choice, as you will have better quality sound. However, if you are not recording in that studio, going with a dynamic will allow you to negate background noise and echo, which will improve your sound quality.

Polar Pattern

A polar pattern is a design that defines how the mic picks up sound. Though like with everything else this a personal preference, most podcasters will suggest you use cardioid pickup pattern. This mic will focus on pricing up the sound from directly in front of it while decreasing the influence of the sounds picked up from the side. There are three types of this polar pattern: cardioid, super-cardioid, and hyper-cardioid.

Connection

Most podcasters will be using a computer as their chosen recording device, so making sure that you have an easy hookup to your equipment is important. There are two main types of connection. You can go with a mic that uses a USB connection (which is the most frequently used by podcasters) or one that goes with an XLR hookup, which uses a port resembling a headphone jack to connect to your audio input source. This is good if you are working in an actual studio and not out of your home studio or office.


Condenser vs. Dynamic vs. Lavalier: What Does it Mean?


These are 3 different types of microphones that handle sound in different ways. Here’s all you need to know, without getting into the nitty gritty:
  • If you have a soft voice, go with a condenser like the GoMic or NT-USB. The higher gain and range will add more *umph* to your voice. Condensers are also the best mic for ASMR recordings, as they’ll pick up that airiness in your voice.

  • If there’s a lot of background noises in your studio, go with a dynamic mic like the AT2005. This will reduce sound from unwanted sources, including air vents, refrigerators, neighborhood sounds, children in the house, etc.

  • If you need to move around while you talk, go with a lavalier like the YouMic. This tiny condenser mic clips into your shirt, and can plug into a smartphone, making it much more portable than the other mics.

夏威夷语

夏威夷语的发展史

1778年库克船长来到夏威夷之前,夏威夷语只是一种口头语言,是库克和他的部下第一次把夏威夷语记录下来,而且他们很快就意识到夏威夷语和之前见过的毛利人和塔希提人的语言很相似。

传教士来到夏威夷之后,他们需要把口语形式的夏威夷语转换成一种书面语,然后教会夏威夷人读懂书面语,这样做的目的是传播圣经。

传教士发明了夏威夷语字母,总共是12个字母,后来又增加了两个标点符号:奥金那(okina)和卡汉库(kahako)。

 

夏威夷语一瞥

夏威夷语的字母表中共有十二个字母——五个元音字母和七个辅音字母。此外还有奥金那(okina)和卡汉库(kahako),它们是能改变单词发音的标点符号。

夏威夷语的字母是:A, E, I, O, U, H, K, L, M, N, P, W。
元音字母的读音和英语的不同:
A 读作"ah"
E 读作"eh"
I 读作"ee"
O 读作"oh"
U 读作"oo"

一般地,夏威夷语里的"W"读起来像英语的"V"。

辅音遇到元音时,会和元音一起发音,如,"H"和元音字母的组合会读作:
Ha读作"Hah"
He读作"Heh"
Hi读作"Hee"
Ho读作"Hoh"
Hu读作"Hoo"

奥金那(okina)是一个类似于撇号(')的符号,它用来分隔音节。奥金那(okina)也叫停顿,只在两个元音之间出现。以夏威夷语为母语的人和较传统的人在说或写夏威夷语时会随时添加这个符号。奥金那(okina)虽然不一定会出现在印刷品和互联网上,但会出现在各大夏威夷语报纸和许多书中。比如,Lanai 这个单词,如果不用停顿符号的话读作"Lah-nigh",用了停顿符号之后写成"Lana‘I",读作"Lah-nah-ee"。另一个例子是Molokai这个单词,如果不用停顿符号的话读作"Moh-loh-kai"(kai读起来像 sky里的ky),用了停顿符号之后写成"Moloka‘I"读作"Moh-loh-kah-ee"。虽然两种读法都是正确的,但是你要注意有时停顿符号会改变单词的意思。

卡汉库(kahako)是一个看上去像破折号(-)的符号,它标在元音字母的上面,表示这是一个长元音,要比正常读音拖长一点,这个差别很小,往往很难把握。
