In this analysis, we will look at the first few measures of Auld Lang Syne, a traditional Scottish ballad.
（在这里，我们看一下苏格兰民谣《友谊地久天长》中的前几个小节）
First, we must determine the key. Since the key signature contains one flat, two possibilities exist: F major or D minor.
（首先我们需要定调。调号是一个降号，那么，要么是F大调要么是D小调）
The first chord contains F–A–C, an F major triad. Since this is I in F Major, we are most likely in that key.
（第一个和弦有F-A-C，是一个F的大三和弦，I是F和弦，那么它就是F大调）
The next measure contains all F's, A's, and C's. Thus, all four chords are I. Since we would be repeating an analysis symbol, there is no need to write it again.
（在接下来的小节中四个和弦都是F-A-C三个音的重复，所以不需要再重复写）
The first chord of the next measure contains C–C–E–G, a C major triad. Thus, it is a V chord.
（在下一小节的第一个和弦包含C-C-E-G，是C的大三和弦，所以，这是V和弦）
The second chord contains a C–C–D–F. This doesn't fit nicely into a triad – let's skip it for now.
（第二个和弦包含C-C-D-F，它并不是一个三和弦，我们先跳过它）
The third chord is a duplicate of the first.
（第三个和弦和第一个和弦一样）
The fourth chord contains a C–B-flat–E–A. This chord also doesn't fit into a triad. Let's skip it as well.
（第四个和弦包括C-B-降E-A，它也不是一个三和弦，我们先跳过它）
The next measure contains F–A–C. Again, all four chords are I chords.
（下一个小节又包括F-A-C，它们都是I和弦）
The final measure contains a B-flat–B-flat–F–D, a B-flat major triad. Thus, it is a IV chord.
（最后一个和小节包括降B-降B-降F-D，它是降B的大三和弦，所以它是IV和弦）
Let's go back and analyze the chords that we skipped.
（我们回到前面去看一下跳过的和弦）
If we consider nonharmonic tones, the first skipped chord can be analyze as a continuation of the V with two neighboring tones.
（如果我们考虑一下非谐和音，那么第一个跳过的和弦就可以被分析为V和弦带有两个辅助音的延续）
The second skipped chord is trickier.
（第二个被我们跳过的和弦就没那么简单了）
When voicing seventh chords, composers sometimes leave out the fifth.
（当使用七和弦时，作曲家们有时会省略五音）
Notice that the bottom three notes are the root, third, and seventh of a C dominant seventh chord. Only the G (the fifth) is missing.
（注意底下的三个音符是C的属七和弦的根音、三音和七音，只有G（五音）不见了）
Hence, we can analyze it as V7 with a nonharmonic A.
（所以，我们可以分析它为V7带有一个不谐和音A）
Since the A is approached by step and then skips, it is an escape tone.
（因为从A的上一个音到它是级进，A到下一个音是跃进，所以它是一个逃脱音）
This analysis is reinforced by the fact that V chords commonly resolve to I.
（由这个分析可以看出，V和弦通常可以解决I和弦）
Play these measures of Auld Lang Syne.
