发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All the words above rhyme with /strænd/: they share the same stressed vowel /æ/ and the ending /nd/. Beware of lookalikes: 'strange' /streɪndʒ/ and 'string' /strɪŋ/ look somewhat similar but sound different. The -and spelling in 'wand' /wɒnd/ (or /wɑːnd/ in US) does not rhyme.
