Why currency rhymes the way it does
Currency is three-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the high /ษช/, then it doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 103, assonance 4,613, and consonance 212. 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. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Currency is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
