语域：formal 常见场景：education、management headship 通常用于正式语境，指校长或机构负责人的职位；日常口语较少用，多出现在招聘、官方文件或机构介绍中。
这些词都含有后缀 -ship，词尾读音均为 /ʃɪp/，与 headship 的结尾读音一致。但 headship (/ˈhedʃɪp/) 的重读元音是 /e/，friendship (/ˈfrendʃɪp/) 的重读元音也是 /e/，不过其后的辅音不同 (/d/ 对 /nd/)，所以不算严格押韵。注意拼写相似的词：head /hed/ 与 heard /hɜːrd/ 发音不同；ship /ʃɪp/ 与 sheep /ʃiːp/ 发音不同。
