发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
These words show two spelling traps: 'addis' looks like 'add' + 'is' but is pronounced /ˈædɪs/. Genuine rhymes: caddis and Gladys (both have the /ædɪs/ ending). Lookalikes that sound different: radish (/ˈrædɪʃ/, ends with /ʃ/), addict (/ˈædɪkt/, ends with /kt/), address (/əˈdres/, stress is on the second syllable), and adds (/ædz/, no second syllable at all).
