发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Only duct, abduct and deduct rhyme with each other: their final -duct is stressed and pronounced /dʌkt/. Aqueduct, viaduct, conduct (noun) and product have the same spelling -duct but stress falls on the first syllable, so the -duct is unstressed (/dʌkt/); they do not rhyme with the stressed -duct words or with each other. Beware: conduct as a verb is /kənˈdʌkt/ and then rhymes with abduct/deduct.
