Why comrade rhymes the way it does
In our engine, comrade registers as a two-syllable word on the gliding /eษช/ (/a/) that closes on a hard stop.

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. 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 comrade, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
