联想“狼起”：火箭像狼一样猛然跃起蹿向天空，launching 就是这个“发射/启动”的动作。
语域：neutral 常见场景：航天/军事发射、产品发布/项目启动 作为名词，launching 通常指“发射、启动或推出”这一行为，多用于航天、军事或商业发布等场景；口语中更常用 launch，正式写作中用 launching 也不算生硬。
与 launching 真正押韵的是 staunching（/ˈstɔːntʃɪŋ/；美音也读 /ˈstɑːntʃɪŋ/）。branching、blanching 拼写相似，但英音元音为 /ɑː/，美音为 /æ/，与 launching 的 /ɔː/ 或 /ɑː/ 不同；bunching、lunching、punching 的 -unching 读 /ʌntʃɪŋ/，也不押韵。
