Why fisher rhymes the way it does
Fisher is built around the /ษหr/ vowel (/ษหr/); it's two-syllable and trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 4, assonance 7,397, and consonance 155. 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. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Fisher reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
