发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
There are no common exact rhymes. The related words philanthropy and philanthropist share the opening /fɪˈlænθrə/ with the target, but their endings /pi/ and /pɪst/ differ from /pɪk/, so they do not rhyme. Anthropic and misanthropic are spelling lookalikes in the -thropic suffix, but their main stress falls on -throp- (/ˈθrɒpɪk/), unlike the target's stress, so they also do not rhyme.
