Learner notes
Memory Tip
开头audi像audio（声音），试镜要靠声音和表演打动评委：audition=试演/试镜。
Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：theater/film casting、music/dance auditions、performing arts school 作动词时，audition 属于中性词，既不算正式也不算俚语，通常用于表演艺术相关场景。它既可以指表演者参加试演（多作不及物动词），也可以指选角方对某人进行试演考核（及物用法）。在日常口语中虽然不如名词用法常见，但在谈戏剧、影视、音乐等领域时是自然且常用的说法。
Pronunciation & Spelling
以上单词都以 -dition 结尾，重读部分 /ˈdɪʃən/ 与 audition 相同，因此押韵。注意 lookalikes：audience /ˈɔːdiəns/ 和 audio /ˈɔːdioʊ/ 也以 audi- 开头，但发音完全不同，不押韵。
