发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Genuine sound matches: daughter (/ˈdɔtɚ/), granddaughter (/ˈɡrænˌdɔtɚ/), and slaughter (/ˈslɔtɚ/) share the /ɔtɚ/ sound at the end with stepdaughter. stepson and stepmother share the initial /stɛp/ but do not rhyme with stepdaughter because the endings differ. Lookalike warning: laughter is spelled like daughter and slaughter but pronounced /ˈlæftɚ/, not /ɔtɚ/ — do not pronounce the '-aughter' the same way.
