familiarize 的固定搭配是 familiarize...with...，表示“使…熟悉…”，介词用 with 而非 to，with 引出被熟悉的对象。

语域：neutral 常见场景：instructional writing、workplace training、academic writing 该词为中性偏正式用语，多用于书面说明、培训或学术语境；日常口语中较少使用，对话中常用 get to know 等更口语化的表达。
这些 -ize 词与 familiarize 拼写和结尾发音相似，但主重音位置不同（familiarize 的重音在第二音节 mil），因此均不与之真正押韵；它们是“看拼写像、听声音不同”的典型例子。
