Why cabin rhymes the way it does
Cabin sits on the high /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 67, assonance 6,661, and consonance 25. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Cabin is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
