发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Words that genuinely rhyme with 'number' (/ˈnʌmbər/) share the same stressed vowel /ʌ/ and ending /mbər/: lumber, umber, slumber, dumber. Note that words like 'member' (/ˈmɛmbər/), 'chamber' (/ˈtʃeɪmbər/), 'sober' (/ˈsoʊbər/) are lookalikes with the same '-ber' spelling but different vowel sounds, so they do not rhyme.
