发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The stressed syllable of lifeless sounds like life /laɪf/. 'lifelong' and 'lifetime' share that /laɪf/ sound and the spelling 'life'. 'careless', 'hopeless', and 'endless' share the unstressed suffix /ləs/ and the spelling '-less', but because their stressed vowels differ, they do not rhyme with 'lifeless'.
