Learner notes
Memory Tip
想象水珠渗过纸张，慢慢洇开成一页页水痕：seep（渗）＋名词后缀-age，就是渗漏。
Context & Register
语域：formal 常见场景：environmental engineering、geotechnical reports、news about pollution seepage 是较正式的书面词，多用于工程、环保等专业或新闻语境；日常口语中更常说 leak。
Pronunciation & Spelling
seepage 中的 -age 读 /ɪdʒ/（如 village、package、storage、image），但 ee 读 /iː/，所以这些词都不与 seepage 押韵。注意结尾的 page 字母组合不读 /peɪdʒ/；seep 是它的动词来源。
