例如：1. 这个考生分辨不出说到的音哪个唱得准，哪个唱得不准。The examinee was unable to discriminate between true and false singing of the notes in question.

例如：3. 这个职业歌手在由地方电视台播放的音乐会上被抓住假唱。The professional singer was caught lip-syncing during a concert broadcast by the local TV station.
lip synchronization 的意思是 “对口型”，是一种后期配音的技术手段。
例如：4. 对口型是使插入声音力求与原演员口型相配的过程。Lip synchronization is a process where the insertion of audio attempts to match the lip movements of the original actors.
“假唱歌手”，英语可以译为 lip-synch singer或 lip-sync singer。
