Why economy rhymes the way it does
In our engine, economy registers as a four-syllable word on the tight /ษช/ (/ษช/) that leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 3 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 174, assonance 5,797, and consonance 29. 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. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Economy works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
