发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Target 'barbaric' /bɑːˈbærɪk/ has the stressed syllable /bær/. 'Barren' /ˈbærən/ and 'barrier' /ˈbæriə/ share this /bær/ sound, but in these words it is the very first syllable, whereas in 'barbaric' it follows an initial unstressed syllable /bɑː/. 'Basic' /ˈbeɪsɪk/, 'classic' /ˈklæsɪk/, and 'erratic' /ɪˈrætɪk/ match only the unstressed final /ɪk/ (spelled '-ic'), not the stressed vowel. 'Arabic' /ˈærəbɪk/ is a visual lookalike with a different first vowel and stress on the first syllable. None of these words rhymes exactly with 'barbaric'.
