发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Cinnamon is stressed on the first syllable, so true rhymes are very rare. Lemon, salmon, and common share cinnamon's unstressed final /mən/ but have different stressed vowels, so they are not rhymes. Cinder and cinnabar look similar only at the start; they do not rhyme with cinnamon. Synonym shares the initial /ˈsɪn/ sound but ends differently.
