发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Only inadequacy truly rhymes with adequacy (both end in /ˈædɪkwəsi/). Words like accuracy, delicacy, advocacy, legacy, and privacy are spelling lookalikes with the same -acy ending, but their stressed vowels differ (e.g., accuracy /ˈækjərəsi/, delicacy /ˈdɛlɪkəsi/, advocacy /ˈædvəkəsi/, legacy /ˈlɛɡəsi/, privacy /ˈpraɪvəsi/), so they do not rhyme with adequacy.
