Pronunciation & Spelling
True rhyme: trammelled /ˈtræməld/ matches the stressed /træm/ and following /əld/ of untrammelled /ˌʌnˈtræməld/. Lookalikes that do NOT rhyme: rambled /ˈræmbəld/ and scrambled /ˈskræmbəld/ have an extra /b/; travelled /ˈtrævəld/, unravelled /ˌʌnˈrævəld/, and dishevelled /dɪˈʃɛvəld/ end in -elled but have a different consonant or vowel, so they only share spelling, not sound.
