Pronunciation & Spelling
True rhymes: hairlessness /ˈhɛrləsnəs/ and airlessness /ˈɛrləsnəs/ have the same stressed vowel and following sounds as carelessness /ˈkɛrləsnəs/. The -lessness words below (recklessness, helplessness, thoughtlessness) share the spelling and the unstressed suffix /ləsnəs/, but do not rhyme because the stressed syllable differs (e.g. /ˈrɛk-/, /ˈhɛlp-/, /ˈθɔːt-/). Awareness is a lookalike: it contains /ˈwɛrnəs/ but only /nəs/ after the stressed vowel, and its stress falls on the second syllable, so it does not rhyme.
