发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
None of the listed words rhymes exactly with purposefully /ˈpɜːrpəsfəli/. The four words ending in -fully (carefully, beautifully, successfully, peacefully) share only the unstressed suffix /fəli/, and their stressed vowels and following consonants differ. Beware of purposely /ˈpɜːrpəsli/, which looks similar but drops the /f/, and supposedly /səˈpoʊzɪdli/, which has an -edly ending and a different stress pattern.
