语域：mixed 常见场景：everyday conversation、swimming / sports、social night out、fisheries / technical writing、broadcasting / web design crawl 作名词时有多个义项，语域随之变化：日常口语多指“爬行”或“缓慢移动/龟速”；在游泳场景中表示“爬泳、自由泳”；bar crawl 这一表达常见于非正式社交场合；而“养鱼围栏”“字幕滚动条”等义项则较专业或正式。使用时需根据具体含义选择语域。
以上词的尾音都读 /ɔːl/，与 crawl 的读音押韵。brawl、drawl、shawl 和 crawl 都含“awl”，而 ball、call、tall 含“all”；这里的“aw”和“all”都发相同的长音。注意“law”拼写相似但读 /lɔː/，没有末尾的 /l/，因此并不押韵。
