Pronunciation & Spelling
These words all share the spelling ending "-ion". True rhymes with 'fashion' share the same stressed vowel /æ/ and ending /ʃən/, e.g., 'passion'. Words like 'mission', 'nation', 'action', 'vision', and 'cushion' have the same ending sound /ʃən/ (or /ʒən/ for 'vision') but different stressed vowels, so they do not fully rhyme. Be careful not to assume spelling matches sound.
