Why education rhymes the way it does
Pull education apart phonetically and you get a four-syllable word with the front /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close trails through a nasal hum. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 662 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 556, assonance 4,766, and consonance 208. 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 practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for education tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
