Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：everyday conversation、drama and fiction、literary composition 该词是中性词，通常用于日常交谈、戏剧或小说对白以及对话体作品等场合，语气自然，不特别正式或口语化。具体语境不同时仍多保持中性。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 -log/-logue 结尾，末音节都读 /lɔːɡ/，但它们与 dialog 并不是真韵脚，因为 dialog 重音在第一个音节 /ˈdaɪəlɔɡ/。注意 log 与 dialog 的结尾拼写相同，但 log 是单音节词，读 /lɔːɡ/，重音不同。
