Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：community gatherings、social parties 这个名词义项（社交聚会）在现代英语中较少使用，通常见于社区或团体活动的描写；日常口语中一般不这样用。
Pronunciation & Spelling
No common exact rhyme for /ˈsoʊʃəbəl/. The -able words share the spelling chunk -able (pronounced /əbəl/ as an unstressed suffix), but their stressed vowels differ. 'social' is a lookalike at the start but ends in /ʃəl/, not /ʃəbəl/, so it does not rhyme.
Usage priority
Collins 词频等级为 1，建议结合例句记忆，而不是只背中文释义。
