Pronunciation & Spelling
Words like 'beaver', 'cheater', 'feature', 'leader', 'teacher' all share the same stressed vowel /iː/ and the -er suffix, making them true rhymes with 'eager'. However, 'eagle' looks similar (starts with 'ea') but is pronounced /ˈiːɡəl/ with a different ending, so it is a lookalike that does not rhyme.
