Why cabot rhymes the way it does
Cabot sits on the short /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and closes on a hard stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 61 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 71, assonance 6,690, and consonance 997. 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. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for cabot tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
