发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All words share the spelling chunk '-able' and the unstressed suffix pronunciation /əbəl/. However, their stressed vowels differ (e.g., /ʌ/ in comfortable, /aɪ/ in reliable, /eɪ/ in capable, etc.), so they do not rhyme. The pattern is useful for spelling but not for exact pronunciation matching.
