发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All six words share the same stressed vowel /eɪ/ as 'weigh'. Words ending with 'eigh' (neigh, sleigh) are exact spelling matches for the -eigh ending. Words with 'eight' (freight, weight) have a similar spelling pattern but include a silent 't' and are pronounced with a final /t/. The words 'veil' and 'reign' have different spellings but the same vowel sound. Be careful with lookalikes like 'sight' and 'height', which have the -igh spelling but are pronounced /aɪ/.
