What words end in : "shun" ?

Question

Please can you try and find words which end in : "shun".

Very much appreciated!

Answer 1

As many have said, only "shun" ends with those letters.

Perhaps Trina has what you're really looking for, but if so, be aware that endings like the "-cian" of "politician" do NOT make precisely the same sound as "shun".

The VOWEL sound in all of those endings is a special UN-accented sound often called "schwa" (which dictionaries may indicate with an upside-down backwards e... and others with "uh" and the like, though that isn't precisely correct), a sound which is "swallowed" and sometimes virtually disappears. The short u sound of shun --which is accented-- is not the same, even though it may in some instances sound close.

(The irony is that the vowel in an unaccented syllable is SO common, and hence the schwa so widespread, yet many of us have somehow never heard of it... or missed it when some grade school teacher briefly covered it.)

Are you looking for words that RHYME? In that case:

1) You may be trying to rhyme a word that ends with one of Trina's suffixes. BUT, as noted above, none of these has the ACCENT. And usually a good rhyme has to match a word from the vowel of the accented word on. So, if you're trying to rhyme "physician" --where the i before the c is accented, then "optician" and "mission" will work, but "comotion" will not. You'll have to restrict you search to words with the proper accented vowel.

2) You may simplify be trying to rhyme the word "shun". Again, you only need to match it from the vowel of the accented syllable to the end, which here means the "-un" sound. The following 14 words will work for this: begun, bun, dun, fun, gun, hun, mun, nun, pun, run, spun, stun, sun, tun.

(Since the /m/ sound is SO close to /n/, you could also easily use words ending in /um/. You'd have to make sure that syllable is ACCENTED, which it is NOT in many words with -um at the end, though the following work: bum, (be)come, dumb, drum, gum, hum, mum, numb, plum, rum, sum, some, scum, slum, strum, thumb, thrum, yum. "-ung" words are a little more distant, but might possibly work as well. )

Answer 2

Actually SHUN in itself is a word. It means to avoid or to banish. It is the only word that technically ends in "shun" because s, h, u, and n are the last letters in the word.

There are none that end with those 4 letters. Are you looking for words that end with the "shun" sound? If so, there are so many! They end with letters like:

"sion" - as in tension
