Pronunciation & Spelling
Words with the same stressed /eɪʃən/ ending rhyme with exaltation: nation, station, celebration, foundation, and exultation. Be careful: exultation is spelled with a -u- and pronounced /ˌɛɡzʌlˈteɪʃən/ (not /ˌɛɡzɔːlˈteɪʃən/), though it still rhymes. Useful lookalike that sounds different overall: exhalation /ˌɛkshəˈleɪʃən/ – it has stress on /leɪ/ and a /hə/ in the middle, so do not confuse it with exaltation despite the similar spelling.
