Words that rhyme with Intro
Take intro apart phonetically and the bones are these: two-syllable, vowel on the round /ษ/, ending that doesn't close on a consonant at all.

When the search is rhymes for intro, the answer takes a specific form: perfect rhymes simply aren't available, the family column is blank, and the assonance column dwarfs the others.

Why intro rhymes the way it does
Pull intro apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the round /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 114, assonance 13,218, and consonance 19. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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. Intro rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
