发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Only unreadable (/ˌʌnˈriːdəbəl/) truly rhymes with readable (/ˈriːdəbəl/). Words such as capable, suitable, and comfortable share the -able spelling but stress an earlier syllable, so they are spelling lookalikes rather than rhymes. Reasonable begins with the same rea- sound but then differs, so it also does not rhyme.
