Pronunciation & Spelling
stuff, cuff, rough, and enough all rhyme with the final -stuff in foodstuff (/ˈfudˌstʌf/), ending in the /ʌf/ sound. Be careful with lookalikes: the -ood in food is pronounced /uːd/, but good /ɡʊd/ sounds different; and -ough in rough/enough is /ʌf/, but in though /ðoʊ/ and through /θruː/ it is not.
