Why flamenco rhymes the way it does
The phonology of flamenco is a three-syllable core: the round /ษ/ (/ษ/), then it doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 264 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1225, assonance 1,936, and consonance 0. 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Flamenco rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
