发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
No common words rhyme exactly with deafening /ˈdɛfənɪŋ/. Spelling lookalikes ending in -ening have different stressed vowels or consonants: happening /ˈhæpənɪŋ/ has /æ/, opening /ˈoʊpənɪŋ/ has /oʊ/, fastening /ˈfæsənɪŋ/ has /æ/, strengthening /ˈstrɛŋθənɪŋ/ has /ɛ/ followed by /ŋθ/, threatening /ˈθrɛtənɪŋ/ has /ɛ/ but /t/ before /ənɪŋ/, and deepening /ˈdiːpənɪŋ/ has /iːp/ instead of /ɛf/. Pay special attention to deepening, which looks similar to deafening but is pronounced very differently.
