Pronunciation & Spelling
These are spelling lookalikes, not rhymes: none of them rhymes with auxiliary /ɑɡˈzɪljɝi/. Subsidiary shares the -iary ending, and the others share -ary, but auxiliary has a stressed /zɪljɝi/ ending, whereas ordinary, military, necessary, library, and temporary end in an unstressed /-eri/ (with different consonants before it), and subsidiary ends in /-diˌeri/. Do not rhyme them.
