Why gin rhymes the way it does
Gin sits on the high /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 55 matches, family rhymes 77, additive and subtractive together 139, assonance 10,295, and consonance 1178. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Gin is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
