Words that rhyme with Hind

Hind is an unguarded everyday word: one-syllable, vowel sitting on the short /ษช/, ending that closes on the nasal-stop pairing. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Take the rhyme counts on their own terms: you won't run short of perfect rhymes, family-rhyme matches contribute a small near-perfect column, the assonance pool has more matches than any verse will use. Take the lyric role separately and it's a common-tongue word. The perfect-rhyme list below is generous; lean on it before sliding into slant.

Why hind rhymes the way it does

Hind is one-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the high /ษช/, then it lands on the nasal-into-stop combo. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 51 matches, family rhymes 5, additive and subtractive together 236, assonance 3,007, and consonance 429. 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. 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. Hind rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
