Why insured rhymes the way it does
Insured sits on the centred /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and closes on a hard stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 16 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 47, assonance 2,996, and consonance 210. 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. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for insured tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
