Why faith rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for faith starts at the vowel โ the rising /eษช/, IPA /eษช/ โ and ends where the line softens into a fricative tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 6 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 270, assonance 6,224, and consonance 111. 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. 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. Faith is a word that benefits from the second pass.
