Pronunciation & Spelling
These verbs and the noun 'seeds' share the final sound /siːdz/ and rhyme with each other. The noun 'proceeds' /ˈprəʊsiːdz/ stresses the first syllable, so its rhyme is different; despite the '-ceeds' spelling, it does not rhyme with these words. Do not confuse it with the verb 'proceeds' /prəˈsiːdz/, which does rhyme.
