Memory Tip
拆成 run + away:跑+离开,就是“逃跑者”;再联想失控狂奔的火车,或对手全跑光、轻松获胜。
Context & Register
语域:neutral 常见场景:新闻报道中谈及离家出走者、体育或选举报道中表示轻松取胜、事故报道中描述失控的车辆或火车 runaway 作名词时通常为中性词,但具体含义需靠语境判断:指人时常见于新闻或社会服务场景,指失控车辆/火车时多见于事故报道,指轻易获胜时常见于体育或选举评论。请根据上下文选择词义。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 -way 结尾,拼写相似,-way 都读 /weɪ/,但它们都不是 runaway(/ˈrʌnəweɪ/)的押韵词:away 重音在 -way(/əˈweɪ/),其余词重音在首音节,且首音节元音与 runaway 的 /ʌ/ 不同。若找真正押韵,需在重读音节元音和后续音完全相同;本组内没有。
