发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Container, retainer, and maintainer rhyme exactly with entertainer because the stressed syllable is the same /teɪnər/. Trainer and gainer also rhyme with it through the /eɪnər/ ending. Watch out for lookalikes: entertain /ˌɛntərˈteɪn/ and entertainment /ˌɛntərˈteɪnmənt/ end with /teɪn/ or /teɪnmənt/, not /teɪnər/, so they do not rhyme with entertainer.
