Pronunciation & Spelling
These words share the spelling ending '-rence' but differ in stress and vowel: 'occurrence' and 'concurrence' have stress on the second syllable with /ɜ/, while 'preference' and 'reference' have stress on the first with /ɛ/. Only 'Lawrence' has /ɔ/ and stress on the first syllable, so they do not rhyme.
