发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
The ending -mason in 'stonemason' is pronounced /meɪsən/, so 'mason', 'freemason', and 'basin' rhyme with it. 'hasten' also rhymes, but its -sten spelling is misleading: the t is silent. 'masonry' shares the /meɪsən/ sequence but adds an extra syllable /ri/, so it does not rhyme exactly. Watch out for lookalikes like 'reason' /ˈriːzən/ and 'parson' /ˈpɑːrsən/, which look similar but sound different.
