发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
True rhymes in the stated pronunciations: regalia, marginalia, genitalia, and azalea all end /eɪljə/, matching paraphernalia's stressed syllable /neɪljə/. Spelling lookalikes that do NOT rhyme: paraplegia /ˌpærəˈpliːdʒə/ and similar -philia words; their endings sound different, so don't judge by spelling alone.
