Pronunciation & Spelling
Only 'fission' (/ˈfɪʃn̩/) rhymes with 'mission' (/ˈmɪʃn̩/). Words like 'passion' and 'nation' have a different stressed vowel. Words like 'vision', 'television', and 'decision' replace /ʃ/ with /ʒ/, so they do not rhyme exactly. All share the -sion spelling.
Usage priority
Collins 词频等级为 4，建议结合例句记忆，而不是只背中文释义。
