发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
lash, clash, flash, slash, splash, and thrash all rhyme, with stress on the shared /æʃ/ sound. In eyelash /ˈaɪ.læʃ/, the same /læʃ/ sound appears but without stress (the stress is on /aɪ/), so they are not full rhymes with the whole word. Be careful: although eyelash is spelled like 'eye' + 'lash', it is pronounced as one word, not as two separate words.
