 “不”的音变

Generally speaking, the word ’No’ would have no other pronunciation except the pronunciation bù, that is, No’s basic tone is 去声. Now look at the following cases:

1. When singly pronounced, at the end of words and phrases or before non-去声 reads 去声. Such as: 不(bu)No、决不(jiu bu)never、不红(bu hong)not red、不好(bu hao)not good。

2. before 去声 reads Pingkai . Such as:不大（bú dà）small、不应（búyìng）答 not reply、不道（bú dào）德 immoral、不骂（bú mà）人 do not criticize sb, etc.
 
3. sandwiched between the words read in a silent voice. Such as: 说不清(shuo bu qing)a hard nut to crack、对不起(dui bu qi)I am sorry.
