语法说明Grammar Note
作“建筑物”时为可数名词；作“建造行为”或“建筑业”时为不可数名词。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
These words all end with '-ing' and share the /ɪŋ/ sound in the unstressed syllable. However, building ends with /dɪŋ/, which includes an extra /d/ sound, so none of these words rhyme perfectly with building. The closest in spelling and sound are those beginning with a consonant + /ɪl/ + /ɪŋ/, like 'willing', 'filling', etc., but still lack the /d/.
