Pronunciation & Spelling
Words ending in '-veloped' (with the same stressed vowel /ɛ/ and following /ləpt/) are genuine rhymes: enveloped, redeveloped, underdeveloped, undeveloped, overdeveloped. Beware of lookalikes like 'groped' (/ɡroʊpt/) and 'hoped' (/hoʊpt/) which have a different vowel, and words ending in '-ept' (e.g., 'kept', 'slept') which lack the unstressed syllable.
