Learner notes
Memory Tip
记法：re（回）+ bate（减少）→ 商家把多付的钱减少退回，rebate 就是部分退款/折扣。
Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：tax filing、retail promotion、business contract rebate 多用于商务、金融或官方文本，如税收返还和购物返款；在较随意场合，也可用 refund 或 cashback。
Pronunciation & Spelling
在读音 /ˈriˌbeɪt/ 中，rebate 重音在第一音节，末音节 -bate 读 /beɪt/。bait (/beɪt/) 与这个末音节读音相同；abate (/əˈbeɪt/) 和 debate (/dɪˈbeɪt/) 拼写均以 -bate 结尾，但重音在末音节，因此不与 rebate 押韵。probate (/ˈproʊbeɪt/) 和 incubate (/ˈɪŋkjəbeɪt/) 同为第一音节重音，重音模式与 rebate 相似，但也不押韵。注意：-bate 拼写不能直接决定读音，需看具体单词。
