Why aspect rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for aspect starts at the vowel โ the centred /ษ/, IPA /ษ/ โ and ends where the line closes on a hard stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 61 matches, family rhymes 3, additive and subtractive together 197, assonance 13,673, and consonance 175. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With aspect, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
