Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：商业公司、董事会讨论、招聘广告 directorship 通常指公司或其他组织中董事的职位或任期，多用于商务和正式语境，日常口语中较少出现。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都与 directorship 一样以 -ship 结尾，读音均为 /ʃɪp/，但重音都在前面的音节，因此并不与 directorship（/dɪˈrɛktərʃɪp/）押韵。其中 leadership、membership、ownership 还共享结尾的 /ərʃɪp/ 音。注意：拼写相似词 director /dəˈrɛktər/ 和 directory /dəˈrɛktəri/ 以 -or/-ory 结尾，不读 -ship。
