Common mistakes
The soldiers ramparted against the attack.The soldiers ramparted the city against the attack.
rampart 是及物动词,必须接一个直接宾语(被设防的地点),不能像 defend against 那样只接介词短语。补上 the city 作宾语,同时保留 against the attack 表示防御的对象。
The soldiers ramparted the enemy.The soldiers ramparted the city.
rampart 的宾语应是设防的地点(如城市),而不是敌人;这是受中文“防御敌人”的负迁移影响。应把地点名词放在动词后。

Pronunciation & Spelling
Only 'apart', 'depart', 'impart', and 'part' truly rhyme with one another: they all end in a stressed /pɑːt/. 'Rampart' is not in that rhyme group because its main stress falls on the first syllable (/ræm/), so the final /pɑːt/ is unstressed; these words are useful spelling lookalikes, not true rhymes. 'Ramp' matches rampart's opening sound /ræm(p)/ but lacks the final -art. 'Counterpart' has a stress pattern similar to rampart, but its stressed vowel is /aʊ/ in the first syllable, so it also does not rhyme with rampart.
