Why convoy rhymes the way it does
To understand why convoy rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the rounded /ษษช/ glide, written /ษษช/ โ and the ending, which ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 84, assonance 6,739, and consonance 4. 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 convoy, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
