发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The words communism, mechanism, optimism, patriotism rhyme with chauvinism because they share the final stressed sound /ɪzəm/. Beware of chauvinist: it begins the same but ends in /ɪst/, so it does not rhyme. Also note that chauvinism starts with the /ʃoʊ/ sound, just like show, even though it is spelled with 'ch'.
