Learner notes
Memory Tip
按词形联想：broad（宽广）+ casting（抛撒），把节目像撒种一样抛向四面八方，就是广播。
Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：television and radio industry、news media、professional media work 作名词时通常指广播电视业，多用于行业讨论、新闻报道和职场交流，在正式与非正式场合都比较自然。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都与 broadcasting 的最后一个重读音节 /kæstɪŋ/ 或相近的 /æstɪŋ/ 押韵：casting、podcasting、forecasting 含有相同的拼写片段 -casting；lasting、fasting、contrasting 共享相同的结尾音。注意形近词 broad /brɔd/ 和 broadcast /ˈbrɔdkæst/ 虽然看起来相关，但读音并不以 /æstɪŋ/ 结尾。
