词组 | affluent |
释义 | affluent There are several reasons for preferring the pronunciation with main stress on the initial syllable: \\\\'af-,lü- ənt\\\\. The variant with main stress on the second syllable, Na-'flu-antN, is disapproved by usage writers, is less common among educated speakers (though certainly in respectable use), and could be confused with effluent, which is also sometimes pronounced with main stress on the second syllable. Confusion is far less likely when main stress falls on the contrasting initial vowels. |
