Words that rhyme with Agility
Take agility apart phonetically and the bones are these: four-syllable, vowel on the short /ɪ/, ending that doesn't close on a consonant at all. Abstract words like this work best when the surrounding line is sensory. What rhymes with agility? The honest answer: strict matches show up in low numbers, the family column is blank, while the assonance bucket is the workhorse here. Its lyric role is an abstract noun. When strict matches feel exhausted, the assonance column is where you go fishing.

Why agility rhymes the way it does
In our engine, agility registers as a four-syllable word on the short /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) that opens out at the end. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 44 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 109, assonance 11,986, and consonance 283. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Agility works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
