发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
None of these words is a perfect rhyme with /ˈresɪteɪtɪv/; they are listed to help with the spelling and sound of the ending. Imitative, quantitative, qualitative, and authoritative all contain the written suffix -itative and in the pronunciations shown here end in /teɪtɪv/, matching recitative’s final /teɪtɪv/ but not its stressed vowel. Initiative is a warning: although it resembles recitative, its -iative is pronounced /ʃətɪv/, not /teɪtɪv/. Relative also warns that the spelling -ative is often /ətɪv/.
