Pronunciation & Spelling
The first five words (roll, control, scroll, stroll, troll) share the same /roʊl/ ending as 'payroll' and are genuine rhymes. However, 'pail' (/peɪl/) looks similar (starts with 'p' and ends with 'l') but sounds different: its vowel is /eɪ/ instead of /oʊ/. Also beware of lookalikes like 'pay' (/peɪ/) which lacks the final /l/.
