发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Only 'extinguished' (/ɪkˈstɪŋɡwɪʃt/) truly rhymes with 'distinguished' (/dɪsˈtɪŋɡwɪʃt/) because it shares the same stressed vowel and following sounds. The other words end with '-ished' but have first-syllable stress, so they are lookalikes that differ in pronunciation.
