释义	Contents overview spelling and pronunciationWord Formation and Spelling351 spelling and pronunciationIn many English words, the spelling is different from the pronunciation. This is mainly because our pronunciation has changed a good deal over the last few hundred years, while our spelling system has stayed more or less the same. Here is a list of some difficult common words with their pronunciations.1usually two syllables, not threeThe letters in brackets are usually not pronounced.asp(i)rin bus(i)ness choc(o)late diff(e)rent ev(e)ry ev(e)ning marri(a)ge med(i)cine (AmE three syllables) om(e)lette rest(au)rant sev(e)ral 2usually three syllables, not fourThe letters in brackets are usually not pronounced.comf(or)table int(e)resting secret(a)ry (AmE four syllables) temp(e)rature us(u)ally veg(e)table 3silent lettersThe letters in brackets are not pronounced.clim(b) com(b) de(b)t dou(b)t dum(b) mus(c)le han(d)kerchief san(d)wich We(d)nesday champa(g)ne forei(g)n si(g)n borou(gh) bou(gh)t cau(gh)t dau(gh)ter hei(gh)t hi(gh) li(gh)t mi(gh)t nei(gh)bour ni(gh)t ou(gh)t ri(gh)t strai(gh)t thou(gh)t throu(gh) ti(gh)t wei(gh) w(h)at w(h)en w(h)ere w(h)ether w(h)ich w(h)ip w(h)y and similarly in other words beginning wha, whe or whi.
