The pronunciation of vlog has always been controversial. Why is there so much emphasis on small words?

With the rise of vlog on social networking sites, vlog was once very popular. Many ordinary people have also followed the example of well-known bloggers or uploaders and started to use mobile phones or cameras to take random moments of their lives, and finally cut them into videos to record a day or a few days of their lives. However, as the popularity of vlog continues to increase, there is great controversy over the pronunciation of this word. Some people think you should read "Wulog", while some people think you should read "Weilog". So what is its correct pronunciation? What does it mean? A brief explanation will be given below.

In fact, vlog first originated abroad. It mainly records the daily personal life of the creator, with a wide range of themes. It can be records of participation in large-scale events, or fragments of trivial matters in daily life. And there are no hard requirements on the content, as long as it does not violate the rules. Speaking of this, I have to think of a short video APP, where you can see all kinds of content, including funny and touching imitations of sand sculptures, which is really a feast for the eyes.

Nowadays, with its popularity on social networking sites, many celebrities will use this simpler and more relaxed way to interact with their fans, and many ordinary people will also use it to record their lives and convey their stories. own philosophy. Not only ordinary people, but also some famous celebrities or famous foreign singers are using vlog to record their daily lives.

Authoritatively speaking, it is the abbreviation of video weblog or video blog. In the Oxford dictionary, its formal pronunciation is: vlog /vl?ɡ /. Therefore, if you want to pronounce this word correctly, you only need to replace the pronunciation of ?v? in ?blog? with the sound of ?b? in ?blog?. But as for whether to pronounce "伟" or "五", because the pronunciation of the voiced consonant /v/ in the phonetic symbol vlog [v'l?g] requires biting the lower lip, which is not the pronunciation of the letter V. Therefore, "五log" is the correct pronunciation of Vlog.
