Context & Register
语域:neutral 常见场景:daily conversation、formal writing、museum or auction descriptions priceless 在表示“无价的、极其珍贵的”时通常为中性表达,日常口语和正式书面语中都较常见,多用于形容物品价值极高,或形容回忆、关系等抽象事物极具价值。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 -less 结尾,后缀都读 /ləs/,所以尾音一致。但它们重读元音各不相同,因此没有一个与 /ˈpraɪsləs/ 完全押韵。真正完全押韵的词很罕见,例如少见的 spiceless /ˈspaɪsləs/。注意不要被拼写误导,像 sunless /ˈsʌnləs/、matchless /ˈmætʃləs/ 虽然也是 -less,但读音并不与 priceless 押韵。
