发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All listed words rhyme with prescribe in the stressed vowel /aɪ/ followed by /b/. The words describe, subscribe, transcribe, inscribe, and ascribe share the transparent spelling chunk 'scribe'. Bribe rhymes but has a different spelling pattern. Beware of lookalikes such as prescription (/prɪˈskrɪpʃən/) and script (/skrɪpt/): their vowel is /ɪ/, not /aɪ/, so they do not rhyme.
