Pronunciation & Spelling
Words ending in -ist all share the suffix /ɪst/, but they do not rhyme with impressionist (/ɪmˈprɛʃənɪst/) because their stressed syllables differ. Expressionist (/ɪkˈsprɛʃənɪst/) is the closest true rhyme, sharing the same stressed -pression- sound. Be careful with lookalikes such as impression (/ɪmˈprɛʃən/), which drops the -ist ending and sounds different.
