Pronunciation & Spelling
Genuine rhyme: none. Near matches: 'somebody' /ˈsʌmbədi/ and 'nobody' /ˈnəʊbədi/ share the unstressed ending /bədi/ (with 'somebody' also matching the /m/ before it), but their stressed vowels differ from /ɒ/. 'body' /ˈbɒdi/ shares the stressed vowel /ɒ/ and final /di/ but lacks the /mbə/ part. Lookalikes to avoid: 'hardy' /ˈhɑːdi/ and 'tardy' /ˈtɑːdi/ have the same 'ardy' spelling as 'Lombardy', but they are pronounced with long /ɑː/ and the 'r' is silent in BrE, so they do not rhyme.
