Words that rhyme with Bot
Bot: one-syllable, a word everyone uses, vowel sitting on the open /ษ/, ending that lands on a closed syllable. Its everydayness lets the song surprise around it. Engine returns: the perfect-rhyme pool is generous, family rhymes come up empty, the slant-by-vowel pool is enormous. Lyric returns: a stop-by-stop-grocery-shelf word. Begin with the perfect list โ it carries plenty before the slant columns are needed.

Why bot rhymes the way it does
In our engine, bot registers as a one-syllable word on the short /ษ/ (/ษ/) that ends with a clean stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 52 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 54, assonance 6,452, and consonance 1671. 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. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Bot works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
