发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The final -burg in Johannesburg is pronounced /bɜːrɡ/ in American English (or /bɜːɡ/ in British English). The words burg, Hamburg, and Pittsburgh share this final sound in American English, but because their stress is on an earlier syllable, they do not rhyme with Johannesburg. Edinburgh is a lookalike: its standard British pronunciation is /ˈɛdɪnbərə/, where -burgh sounds quite different (though American English often says /ˈɛdɪnbɜːrɡ/). Hamburg, hamburger, and burglar illustrate the same /bɜːrɡ/ sound in various positions.
