发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
ACAS is pronounced /ˈeɪkæs/: the first syllable is the long-A sound /eɪ/ and the last is /kæs/. Among these words, gas shares the /æs/ ending (without the /k/) and alias shares the stressed /eɪ/, but no word fully rhymes with ACAS. Alias, atlas, canvas, and Caracas all end in -as but the ending is reduced to /əs/ (Caracas also keeps the -acas spelling), so they are spelling lookalikes, not sound matches. Acacia shares the initial aca- spelling but is pronounced /əˈkeɪʃə/.
