Why crow rhymes the way it does
In our engine, crow registers as a one-syllable word on the round /oส/ (/oส/) that doesn't really close at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 264 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1225, assonance 1,936, and consonance 0. 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 the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Crow is a word that benefits from the second pass.
