Why blink rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for blink starts at the vowel โ the clipped /ษช/, IPA /ษช/ โ and ends where the line lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 29 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 92, assonance 11,550, and consonance 127. 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. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Blink is a word that benefits from the second pass.
