Why foot rhymes the way it does
In our engine, foot registers as a one-syllable word on a back /uห/ (/uห/) that ends with a clean stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 73 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 7, assonance 2,407, and consonance 1890. 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. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With foot, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
