语境与语域Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：diplomatic communiques、news reports on foreign affairs、international relations discussions Envoi 通常在外交、政治新闻等正式场合使用，意为“使节；公使”；泛指“代表”时也较正式。另有诗歌领域的“结尾诗节”义，比较书面，日常口语很少用。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
None of these words rhymes exactly with envoy. Convoy shares the unstressed final syllable /vɔɪ/ and first-syllable stress, but the stressed vowels differ (/ɛ/ vs /ɒ/). Boy, toy, joy, annoy, and deploy all have the same -oy spelling but stress the /ɔɪ/ vowel, so they are useful lookalikes rather than true rhymes.
