Context & Register
sufficient 比较正式，多用于学术、法律或书面语境，在日常口语中也可使用，但不如 enough 常见。
Pronunciation & Spelling
The words efficient, deficient, proficient, and omniscient share the same ending sound /ɪʃənt/ (stressed vowel /ɪ/). Note that 'ancient' ends with -cient but is pronounced with /eɪnʃənt/, so it does not rhyme.
