语域:neutral 常见场景:法律文书、家庭关系讨论、官方表格 “stepparent”是中性、正式的标准词,笼统指继父或继母,通常用于法律文书、家庭关系讨论或不想特指性别的时候;日常口语如果要说具体对象,更常用 stepfather 或 stepmother。
与 stepparent 的后半部分 /peərənt/ 真正押韵的有 parent、grandparent。以 -parent 结尾的 apparent、transparent 拼写很像,但按所给英式风格的读音,它们读 /əˈpærənt/、/trænsˈpærənt/,元音是 /æ/,并不押韵;在美式英语中则可能与 parent 同韵。step、stepchild 显示前缀 step- 的拼写和读音 /step/。注意整个词是 step + parent,不是 steppe + parent。
