语境与语域Context & Register

语法说明Grammar Note
常与定冠词连用,如 the special
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All the listed -cial words share the final /ʃəl/ sound with special /ˈspɛʃəl/, but none rhymes with it because the stressed vowel differs: social /ˈsoʊʃəl/, official /əˈfɪʃəl/, artificial /ˌɑːrtɪˈfɪʃəl/, commercial /kəˈmɜːrʃəl/, and superficial /ˌsuːpərˈfɪʃəl/. Spatial /ˈspeɪʃəl/ is a useful lookalike: it begins with sp- and ends in /ʃəl/, but its vowel is /eɪ/ (and it is spelled -tial), not the /ɛ/ found in special.
