Pronunciation & Spelling
These words share the final spelling '-bly' and end with the sound /bli/ (or /əbli/ in the unstressed final syllable). They are good spelling–sound matches for the ending of 'impeccably'. However, none of them rhymes with 'impeccably' or with each other, because the stressed vowel and following consonants are different. Be careful: it is the ending /bli/ that matches, not a full rhyme; also, do not confuse '-bly' with '-ply' words like 'apply' (/əˈplaɪ/) and 'reply' (/rɪˈplaɪ/), which end in /plaɪ/.
