发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
No common word rhymes exactly with authenticate (ɒ:'θentikeit), because the stressed syllable is -then- and a true rhyme would need the identical -entikeɪt ending. The first four words share the written suffix -icate and its verb pronunciation /ɪkeɪt/, but their stress differs. Beware intricate and delicate: they also end in -icate but are pronounced /ˈɪntrɪkət/ and /ˈdelɪkət/, with a final /kət/, not /keɪt/.
