aunt的美式發(fā)音為/?nt/，意思是嬸嬸，ant的發(fā)音也為/?nt/，意思是螞蟻。

故二者為同音詞。美語中，aunt有兩種發(fā)音，第一種是：/?nt/，這個發(fā)音聽起來和ant（螞蟻）是一樣的，但它也是大多數(shù)美國人使用的讀音。另一種發(fā)音則類似于aunt在英式英語的讀法：/ɑ?nt/。AUNTDefinition: the sister of your mother or father定義：你父親或母親的姐妹Can be pronounced ant rhyming with “pants,” or ahnt rhyming with “want”你可以發(fā)pants里ant的音，也可以發(fā)want里ant的音再比較例句：I usually go shopping with my aunt.我通常和我阿姨一起去購物。A swimming pool full of water is an ocean to an ant.灌滿水的游泳池對螞蟻來說簡直就是海洋。She was so weak that she walked as slowly as an ant.One afternoon an auntof ours came to our house.
