Why fare rhymes the way it does
Fare sits on the /ɑːr/ vowel, transcribed /ɑːr/ in our engine, and flows into the next line via a liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 70 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 94, assonance 8,212, and consonance 476. 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. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Fare pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
