Words ending in '-em' are often pronounced with an unstressed /əm/. However, the stressed vowel varies widely (e.g., /ɒ/ in 'problem', /ɪ/ in 'system', /aɪ/ in 'item', /oʊ/ in 'poem'), so none rhyme exactly with 'anthem' (/ˈænθəm/). Only 'stratagem' (/ˈstrætədʒəm/) shares a similar first-syllable vowel /æ/, but the consonant clusters differ.
