Context & Register
语域：informal 常见场景：康复治疗、非正式交谈 rehab 是 rehabilitation 的非正式缩写，通常用于口语或非正式场合，比较常见于谈论康复治疗或修复过程。正式写作中建议使用完整形式 rehabilitation。
Grammar Note
rehab 是 rehabilitation 的缩略形式；rehabs 常指具体的康复机构或项目，而抽象意义“康复/修复”通常用不可数名词 rehabilitation。
Pronunciation & Spelling
Only prehab (/ˈpriː.hæb/) truly rhymes with rehab (/ˈriː.hæb/) because the stressed vowel /iː/ and everything after it match. Rehash and rehearse share the reh- spelling but not the rhyme: rehash ends in /ʃ/ and rehearse has /rɜːr/. Prefab, lab and cab share only an -ab spelling and final /æb/ sound, but in rehab the final syllable is unstressed, so they are lookalikes rather than rhymes.
