发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
No exact rhyme exists for /ˈkoʊtʃmən/. 'coach' exactly matches its stressed first syllable /koʊtʃ/. 'boat' and 'postman' share the /oʊ/ vowel; 'postman', 'milkman', 'human', and 'German' all end in the unstressed /mən/. Be careful: 'human' /ˈhjuːmən/ and 'German' /ˈdʒɜːrmən/ look like -man compounds but are not, and their vowels before /mən/ differ.
