Pronunciation & Spelling
No word here rhymes exactly with fragrance /ˈfreɪɡrəns/. Fragrant and flagrant look similar but end in /nt/, not /ns/. Elegance and brilliance share the final -ance /əns/ spelling and sound, but their stress is on a different syllable, so they do not rhyme with fragrance. Fragile looks similar at the start but is pronounced /ˈfrædʒəl/.
