发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
No common word truly rhymes with favoritism /ˈfeɪvərɪtɪzəm/. Favorite and favor share its opening /ˈfeɪvər…/ but end differently. Racism, criticism, optimism, and nepotism share only the final suffix -ism /ɪzəm/ (nepotism also has a /tɪzəm/ ending in common), but their stressed vowels and preceding sounds differ; they are useful lookalikes, not rhymes.
