发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The words all share the suffix sound /ɪŋli/, but none rhymes exactly with disconcertingly /ˌdɪskənˈsɜːrtɪŋli/. Disturbingly is the closest because it also has the stressed vowel /ɜːr/, but its following consonant is /b/, not /t/. The other -ingly words have different stressed vowels and are only spelling/suffix lookalikes, not true rhymes.
