发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Rhymes with 'dominant' (/ˈdɑːmənənt/) in American pronunciation: both end in stressed /ɑmənənt/. The words 'eminent' (/ˈɛmɪnənt/), 'imminent' (/ˈɪmɪnənt/), 'permanent' (/ˈpɝːmənənt/), 'continent' (/ˈkɑːntɪnənt/), and 'component' (/kəmˈpoʊnənt/) all end in -nent but have different vowel sounds or stress, so they are spelling lookalikes, not rhymes.
