语境与语域Context & Register
语域：neutral 常见场景：宠物犬介绍、犬类百科、猎犬品种讨论 “spaniel”作“长毛垂耳猎犬”时是普通名词，中性场合即可使用；词典另收比喻义“马屁精”，多用于文学或较旧的表达，日常口语中比较少见。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Daniel (/ˈdænjəl/) rhymes with spaniel: both end in /ænjəl/. Spaniard (/ˈspænjərd/), Spanish (/ˈspænɪʃ/), and span (/spæn/) look alike because they start with 'span' but do not rhyme: Spaniard ends in /ərd/, Spanish in /ɪʃ/, and span is one syllable. Companion (/kəmˈpænjən/) and canyon (/ˈkænjən/) end in /ænjən/, not /ænjəl/, so they are near rhymes only.
