Pronunciation & Spelling
Angolan is pronounced /æŋˈɡoʊlən/. Colon, stolen, and solon share the final stressed pattern /oʊlən/ and rhyme with it. Angola has the same stressed vowel but no final /n/, so it does not rhyme. Mongolian and Tanzanian only look similar because of the -ian spelling; their endings (/oʊliən/ and /niːən/) do not match the /oʊlən/ of Angolan.
