Why asher rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for asher starts at the vowel โ the /ษหr/ vowel, IPA /ษหr/ โ and ends where the line spills out through a liquid consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 9 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 4, assonance 6,679, and consonance 168. 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. Asher rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
