Words that rhyme with Allotted
You can read allotted two ways: as a word the lyric earns weight from by context, or as a three-syllable shape on the front /ษ/ that ends with a clean stop. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. The assonance column dwarfs the others, the family-rhyme classifier finds nothing, and strict matches show up in low numbers. Rhymes for allotted, broken down across five types, look like this: the pull is toward slant work. The slant pool is huge enough that you'll never need to repeat a rhyme.

Why allotted rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for allotted starts at the vowel โ the centred /ษ/, IPA /ษ/ โ and ends where the line lands on a stopped consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 13 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 103, assonance 6,759, and consonance 267. 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Allotted rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
