Why crichton rhymes the way it does
Crichton sits on the round /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and hums to a nasal close. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 89 matches, family rhymes 30, additive and subtractive together 155, assonance 5,663, and consonance 1467. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Crichton pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
