Why arrangement rhymes the way it does
The phonology of arrangement is a four-syllable core: the front /ษ/ (/ษ/), then it closes on the nasal-stop pairing. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 244, assonance 6,625, and consonance 6. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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. Arrangement rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
