Why baritone rhymes the way it does
Baritone is built around the open /oส/ (/o/); it's three-syllable and rings out through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 132 matches, family rhymes 35, additive and subtractive together 355, assonance 4,823, and consonance 1283. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. 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 baritone, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
