发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
Tie, die, and lie share the /aɪ/ sound and the 'ie' spelling. Breaker and heartbreaker contain the same final /breɪkə(r)/. Brake /breɪk/ is a useful lookalike but not a rhyme because it lacks the final /ə(r)/; it is a homophone of 'break' (spelled differently). Also note 'breakfast' is a spelling lookalike but sounds like /ˈbrekfəst/.
