发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Genuine rhymes with the final stressed syllable of honeybee (/biː/): bee (/biː/), be (/biː/), see (/siː/), and tree (/triː/). Maybe ends with the same letters be, but its final syllable is unstressed /bi/, so it does not rhyme. The beginning honey (/ˈhʌni/) is also a lookalike but does not rhyme because it ends in /ni/.
