发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Wellington, Darlington, and Arlington end in the same unstressed sound /lɪŋtən/ as Burlington (/ˈbɜːlɪŋtən/); they are useful sound matches but do not rhyme with it, because their stressed vowels differ. Washington is a spelling lookalike with the same -ington ending, but its final sound is /ʃɪŋtən/, not /lɪŋtən/.
