发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Genuine rhyme: luxuriate (/lʌɡˈʒʊərieɪt/) shares the stressed /ʊəri eɪt/ ending with infuriate (/ɪnˈfjʊərieɪt/). Lookalikes ending in -iate: appreciate, initiate, associate have different stress and vowel sounds (/ʃieɪt/ or /tʃieɪt/), so they do not rhyme. Furious and curious match the /fjʊə-/ and /kjʊə-/ opening sounds but differ in the final syllable.
