发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Words such as 'prospective' and 'perspective' rhyme with 'respective' (all have /-ˈspɛktɪv/). However, 'respect', 'aspect', and 'inspect' share the -spect spelling but do NOT rhyme because they end in /-spɛkt/ instead of /-spɛktɪv/. Note that 'respect' differs only by the final 'ive' but has a different ending sound.
