Pronunciation & Spelling
None of these words rhymes with /ˈbræmptən/. Camp, stamp, and tramp share the stressed-syllable rime /æmp/, but brampton continues with an extra /tən/ syllable. Button and cotton end in the same spelling -ton and the same unstressed /tən/ sound, but their stressed vowels differ. Ton is a lookalike: the standalone word is pronounced /tʌn/, not /tən/.
