Pronunciation & Spelling
The words 'addict', 'contradict', 'verdict', 'dictate' (partially), and 'edict' share the '-dict' ending and have similar stressed vowel /ɪ/ (except 'dictate' with /ɪ/). 'Indict' is a lookalike: it ends with '-dict' but is pronounced /ɪnˈdaɪt/ (silent 'c'), so it does not rhyme.
