记忆技巧Memory Tip
拧扳手(wrench)要猛力一扭，所以它既指‘扳手’，又指‘猛扭、扭伤’——手一拧，肌肉就拉伤。
语境与语域Context & Register
语域：mixed 常见场景：工具/五金店、医疗/运动损伤描述、文学/正式写作 wrench 作名词时含义多样，日常多用于指“扳手”或“猛拉/扭伤”，语气较中性；在文学或正式语体中可表达“离别的痛苦”，在专业领域（如物理、机械）还有特定含义，所以整体语域比较混合。建议根据具体语境判断。
发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
以上单词均以 -ench 结尾，读作 /ɛntʃ/，与 wrench /rɛntʃ/ 押韵。注意 wrench 中的 w 不发音，整体读 /rɛntʃ/，不要按拼写作 /w/。拼写相似的 wench /wɛntʃ/、winch /wɪntʃ/ 发音不同。
