Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：文学作品、正式演说、胜利或成功后的叙述 exult 属于较正式的书面词汇，多用于文学作品或正式场合，日常口语中不太常用；表示因胜利或成功而欢欣鼓舞时，可用 rejoice 或 be very happy 代替。
Pronunciation & Spelling
与 exult /ɪɡˈzʌlt/ 押韵的有：result /rɪˈzʌlt/、consult /kənˈsʌlt/、insult（动词）/ɪnˈsʌlt/、adult（/əˈdʌlt/）和 cult /kʌlt/；它们重读元音都是 /ʌ/，且后面都跟着 /lt/。注意：exalt /ɪɡˈzɔːlt/ 拼写极像，但元音是 /ɔː/，不押韵；adult 也常读作 /ˈædʌlt/，此时不押韵。catapult /ˈkætəpʌlt/、tumult /ˈtuːmʌlt/ 虽也以 -ult 结尾，但因重音在词首，也不与 exult 押韵。
