Pronunciation & Spelling
All these words share the final /aʊt/ sound with the last syllable of walkout (/ˈwɒːkaʊt/). In walkout, the l in walk is silent, so the first part is /wɒːk/, not /wɒːlk/. Also note that doubt has a silent b: /daʊt/. Be careful with other ou spellings such as cough (/kɒf/) and though (/ðəʊ/), which look similar but sound different.
