语境与语域Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：日常交谈、社区或邻里关系描写 neighborly 是常见的中性词，通常用于日常交流或描写邻里关系，语气亲切自然；在严肃的正式文件或学术文章中较少出现。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
neighbor, eight, and weight use the same 'eigh' spelling as neighborly's stressed /eɪ/ sound, but none fully rhymes with neighborly because the endings differ. height is a useful lookalike: its 'eigh' is pronounced /aɪ/, not /eɪ/. orderly and friendly share only the final spelling pattern (-rly or -ly); their stressed vowels and following sounds do not match neighborly, so they are not rhymes.
