发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Words starting with 'back-', such as 'back' and 'backache', share the same initial syllable /bæk/ with 'backbone'. Note that 'bone' as a separate word has primary stress (/boʊn/) and does not rhyme with the unstressed second syllable of 'backbone'. Also be careful with lookalikes like 'bank' (/bæŋk/) which has a nasal consonant, and 'bake' (/beɪk/) which has a different vowel sound.
