联想:thorough(彻底的)加名词后缀-ness,就成了thoroughness,即把事做透的一丝不苟。
语域:neutral 常见场景:工作总结、绩效评估、学术写作 “thoroughness” 多用于正式或书面语境(如工作总结、绩效评估、学术写作),强调处理任务时全面、细致、不漏细节;在日常口语中较少以抽象名词形式出现。
真正读音相似的词:borough 和 thorough 都以 -orough 结尾,重音相同,英式读 /ˈbʌrə/、/ˈθʌrə/,美式读 /ˈbɜːroʊ/、/ˈθɜːroʊ/,二者押韵(但 thoroughness 多出后缀 -ness,所以不与它们完全押韵)。拼写相近但读音不同的词:roughness、toughness 与 thoroughness 末尾拼写都是 -oughness,但前两个读 /ˈrʌfnəs/、/ˈtʌfnəs/(ough 读 /ʌf/),与 /ˈθʌrənəs/ 或 /ˈθɜːroʊnəs/ 很不相同。happiness、darkness 与 thoroughness 共享后缀 -ness(读 /nəs/),但重读元音不同,因此不押韵。
