发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All six words share the spelling suffix -ery, but only some of their sounds match. Tracery /ˈtreɪsəri/: grocery /ˈɡroʊsəri/ and nursery /ˈnɜːrsəri/ match the unstressed ending /səri/, but their stressed vowels differ, so they are not exact rhymes. Bakery /ˈbeɪkəri/ and bravery /ˈbreɪvəri/ share the stressed vowel /eɪ/ and the final /əri/, yet the middle consonant differs, making them near rhymes only. Beware surgery /ˈsɜːrdʒəri/ and mystery /ˈmɪstəri/: their similar spellings are misleading because their vowel sounds are quite different. No common English word rhymes exactly with tracery.
