发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All the words above share the spelling ending '-list' and the final /lɪst/, but none rhymes with 'shortlist' because the stressed vowel differs. 'shortlist' stresses the first syllable with /ɔːt/, while these words have different stressed vowels (e.g. /ɪ/ in 'list', /æ/ in 'blacklist', /e/ in 'checklist', /aɪ/ in 'whitelist' and 'wishlist', /eɪ/ in 'playlist'). Use them for spelling comparison only, not for rhyme.
