Why frankie rhymes the way it does
Frankie sits on the bright /iห/, transcribed /iห/ in our engine, and ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 142 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1041, assonance 2,306, 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. Frankie rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
