Why jimenez rhymes the way it does
To understand why jimenez rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the front /ษ/, written /ษ/ โ and the ending, which lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 56 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 5, assonance 10,503, and consonance 796. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Jimenez pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
