学习提示Learner notes
记忆技巧Memory Tip
拉紧的弓弦或绳子发出“taut”的绷直声；拼写 t-a-u-t，别与同音的 taught（教）混淆。
语境与语域Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：航海/帆船场景、体育健身、文学评论 taut 多用于描述绳索、帆布等被拉紧或绷紧的状态，常出现在航海、体育或文学描写中；在口语中较少直接使用，若表示“紧张”更常用 tense 或 stressed。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Rhymes with caught, taught, thought, bought, and brought (all /ɔt/). Note that taunt looks similar but is pronounced /tɔnt/, with a final /nt/, so it does not rhyme with taut.
