Why alluring rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for alluring starts at the vowel โ the high /ษช/, IPA /ษช/ โ and ends where the line lets the nasal carry the tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 13 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 37, assonance 3,280, and consonance 137. 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. Alluring rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
