Why floor rhymes the way it does
To understand why floor rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the rounded /uห/, written /uห/ โ and the ending, which ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 113 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 559, assonance 3,751, and consonance 806. 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. Floor pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
