发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
rainwater /ˈreɪnˌwɔtɚ/ ends in the /wɔtɚ/ sound, so it rhymes with water, daughter, and slaughter. Rain, brain, and train match the first /reɪn/ part but do not rhyme with the whole word. Don't confuse it with rainwear /ˈreɪnwɛr/, which looks similar but sounds different.
