Memory Tip
把 spout 拆成 sp（像 spray 喷）+ out（外）：水从壶嘴向外猛喷就是 spout；说话滔滔不绝也像在‘喷’。记住这个画面即可。
Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：describing a whale, fountain, or pipe emitting water、describing someone speaking pompously or at tedious length spout 作动词时有两个常见义项：本义指液体喷出（如鲸鱼喷水、管道喷水），属于中性用法；引申义指滔滔不绝或夸夸其谈地说，多用于口语，常带贬义。正式写作中一般用本义，口语中两者都可能出现，需根据具体语境选择。
Grammar Note
可作及物动词和不及物动词，及物时后接宾语，不及物时无需宾语。
Pronunciation & Spelling
这些词都以 /aʊt/ 结尾，和 spout（/spaʊt/）押韵。注意别被拼写误导：south 读 /saʊθ/，结尾是 /θ/，与 spout 不押韵；though、through 等含 -ough 的词发音也各不相同。
