Memory Tip
Sound 作形容词：身强体健（sound body）、觉沉梦稳（sound sleep）、根基扎实（sound basis），都离不开‘稳、好、全’。
Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：健康与身体状况、睡眠、论证与判断、法律与正式文书 该形容词的语域随搭配而变化：描述健康、睡眠或物体牢固时通常较中性，日常和书面语都常见；表示“合理的、合法的”等抽象含义时多用于正式或专业语境。总体可按中性偏正式理解，具体需看搭配。
Grammar Note
形容词，表示‘健康的’、‘明智的’或‘酣畅的’等含义，常用于系表结构或作前置定语。
Pronunciation & Spelling
found、round、ground、pound、bound 与 sound 都以 -ound 结尾，且都读 /aʊnd/，可与 sound 押韵。注意 wound 是形近词：作名词“伤口”时读 /wuːnd/，与 sound 不押韵；只有作 wind 的过去式时才读 /waʊnd/，与 sound 同韵。
