发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
chancy (/ˈtʃænsi/, US) rhymes with fancy (/ˈfænsi/); in British English chancy is /ˈtʃɑːnsi/ and does not. Policy, agency, mercy, privacy, and currency share the -cy ending and final /si/ sound but do not rhyme because their stressed vowel differs. Beware lookalikes such as fans /fænz/ and fanny /ˈfæni/, which sound different.
