发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Words ending in -go often have varied pronunciations. The ending -go in 'chicago' is pronounced /ɡoʊ/, matching 'ago', 'cargo', 'mango' exactly. 'Buffalo', 'tornado', 'volcano' share the same vowel sound /oʊ/ but differ in final consonants; they are useful lookalikes but not perfect rhymes.
