Why hunter rhymes the way it does
The phonology of hunter is a two-syllable core: the /ษหr/ that mid-Atlantic ears class as one vowel (/ษหr/), then it spills out through a liquid consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 12 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 63, assonance 4,910, and consonance 343. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Hunter works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
