All listed words share the '-ate' ending pronounced /eɪt/. However, 'necessitate' has primary stress on the second syllable (niˈsesiteit), while some of these words (e.g., 'create', 'debate', 'translate') also have second-syllable stress, and others (e.g., 'dictate', 'hesitate', 'imitate') have first-syllable stress. The final /eɪt/ sound rhymes with that in 'necessitate'.
