发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Only island /ˈaɪlənd/ rhymes with highland. Lowland, inland, and woodland share the unstressed -land /lənd/ ending but have different stressed vowels, so they are not rhymes. Farmland says -land as /lænd/, and Ireland adds an /ər/ before -land, making both lookalikes that sound different.
