发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
None of the listed words fully rhymes with chivalry /ˈʃɪvəlri/. Chef /ʃɛf/ and chic /ʃiːk/ match the initial /ʃ/ sound spelled 'ch'. Lookalikes that sound different: cavalry /ˈkævəlri/, rivalry /ˈraɪvəlri/, and revelry /ˈrevəlri/ share the '-vəlri' ending but have different stressed vowels, so they do not rhyme. Shiver /ˈʃɪvər/ shares the /ʃɪv/ sound but is spelled with 'sh'.
