All pattern words end with '-ality' and have the stressed vowel /æ/ followed by /ləti/, rhyming with 'locality'. Note that the stress pattern may vary (e.g., 'nationality' has primary stress on the third syllable), but they still rhyme. Beware of similar-looking endings like '-ility' (e.g., 'ability' /əˈbɪləti/) which have a different vowel sound.
