In this analysis, we will look at the first few measures of Auld Lang Syne, a traditional Scottish ballad.
（在這裡，我們看一下蘇格蘭民謠《友誼地久天長》中的前幾個小節）
First, we must determine the key. Since the key signature contains one flat, two possibilities exist: F major or D minor.
（首先我們需要定調。調號是一個降號，那麼，要麼是F大調要麼是D小調）
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.
（第一個和絃有F-A-C，是一個F的大三和弦，I是F和絃，那麼它就是F大調）
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.
（在接下來的小節中四個和絃都是F-A-C三個音的重複，所以不需要再重複寫）
The first chord of the next measure contains C–C–E–G, a C major triad. Thus, it is a V chord.
（在下一小節的第一個和絃包含C-C-E-G，是C的大三和弦，所以，這是V和絃）
The second chord contains a C–C–D–F. This doesn't fit nicely into a triad – let's skip it for now.
（第二個和絃包含C-C-D-F，它並不是一個三和弦，我們先跳過它）
The third chord is a duplicate of the first.
（第三個和絃和第一個和絃一樣）
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.
（第四個和絃包括C-B-降E-A，它也不是一個三和弦，我們先跳過它）
The next measure contains F–A–C. Again, all four chords are I chords.
（下一個小節又包括F-A-C，它們都是I和絃）
The final measure contains a B-flat–B-flat–F–D, a B-flat major triad. Thus, it is a IV chord.
（最後一個和小節包括降B-降B-降F-D，它是降B的大三和弦，所以它是IV和絃）
Let's go back and analyze the chords that we skipped.
（我們回到前面去看一下跳過的和絃）
If we consider nonharmonic tones, the first skipped chord can be analyze as a continuation of the V with two neighboring tones.
（如果我們考慮一下非諧和音，那麼第一個跳過的和絃就可以被分析為V和絃帶有兩個輔助音的延續）
The second skipped chord is trickier.
（第二個被我們跳過的和絃就沒那麼簡單了）
When voicing seventh chords, composers sometimes leave out the fifth.
（當使用七和絃時，作曲家們有時會省略五音）
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.
（注意底下的三個音符是C的屬七和絃的根音、三音和七音，只有G（五音）不見了）
Hence, we can analyze it as V7 with a nonharmonic A.
（所以，我們可以分析它為V7帶有一個不諧和音A）
Since the A is approached by step and then skips, it is an escape tone.
（因為從A的上一個音到它是級進，A到下一個音是躍進，所以它是一個逃脫音）
This analysis is reinforced by the fact that V chords commonly resolve to I.
（由這個分析可以看出，V和絃通常可以解決I和絃）
Play these measures of Auld Lang Syne.
