发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
While 'imaginary' shares the /nɛri/ ending with 'ordinary' (rhyme), the other words end in -ary but have different preceding consonants: /dɛri/ (secondary), /ʃənɛri/ (dictionary), /sɛri/ (necessary), /rɛri/ (honorary), /tɛri/ (momentary). Spelling alone does not guarantee a true rhyme.
