Words that rhyme with Frat
Frat reads as a common-tongue word on the page; phonetically it's one-syllable, anchored on a low-front /æ/, ending where it snaps shut on a stop. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. Engine returns: the perfect-rhyme pool is one of the deeper ones, family-rhyme territory comes up dry, the slant-by-vowel pool is enormous. Lyric returns: a quotidian anchor. Begin with the perfect list — it carries plenty before the slant columns are needed.

Why frat rhymes the way it does
To understand why frat rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel — the short /æ/, written /æ/ — and the ending, which shuts cleanly on a stopped consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 54 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 25, assonance 6,609, and consonance 1047. 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. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Frat is a word that benefits from the second pass.
