发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词以 -off 结尾或发 /ɒf/ 音：off、scoff、standoff、playoff 拼写同以 -off 结尾，读作 /ɒf/；cough 和 trough 拼写为 -ough，但在英式英语中也读 /ɒf/。注意：它们虽然结尾音相同，但与 kickoff 的重音模式不同，因此并不与 kickoff 押韵。真正押韵要求重读音节及之后完全相同，如 kickoff 与 pickoff /ˈpɪkɒf/。另外，though /ðəʊ/、through /θruː/、rough /rʌf/ 等 -ough 词读音各异，切勿照拼写读；of /əv/ 与 off 也易混淆。
