Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：日常谈论物体重量、物理或工程描述、书面说明 在这里，heaviness 指‘重量大’，是中性词。日常谈论物体有多重时很常用，也比较常见于物理、工程等书面说明中；语气没有明显的正式或随意之分，多根据上下文自然使用。
Pronunciation & Spelling
前五个词都以 -ness 结尾，末尾的非重读音节都读 /nəs/，发音匹配；但因重读音节不同，它们与 heaviness 并不构成押韵。注意 business 的发音是 /ˈbɪznəs/，中间的 i 不发音；heaven 开头拼写 heav 与 heaviness 相同，但结尾完全不同，读作 /ˈhɛvən/，也不与 heaviness 押韵。
