Pronunciation & Spelling
Genetic, genetics, and gene share the initial spelling with geneticist but differ in sound: /dʒəˈnɛtɪk/, /dʒəˈnɛtɪks/, and /dʒiːn/ do not rhyme with /dʒɪˈnɛtɪsɪst/. Physicist and publicist share the unstressed suffix -icist /ɪsɪst/ with geneticist, so their endings sound alike, but the stressed syllables are different and they do not fully rhyme.
