发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The words 'flavour' (/ˈfleɪvə/) and 'savour' (/ˈseɪvə/) share the same stressed vowel /eɪ/ and following sounds /və/ as 'favour', thus are exact rhymes. Words like 'neighbour' (/ˈneɪbə/), 'colour' (/ˈkʌlə/), 'honour' (/ˈɒnə/), and 'labour' (/ˈleɪbə/) end in '-our' but have different consonant or vowel endings, so they do not rhyme.
