Pronunciation & Spelling
The words 'mixture' and 'fixture' share the exact ending /kstʃɚ/ with 'texture'. Words ending in '-ture' like 'picture', 'structure', 'nature', and 'capture' end in /tʃɚ/ (without the /ks/ sound), so they are useful spelling lookalikes but do not rhyme fully with 'texture'.
