Words that rhyme with Lattice
From a sound-design view, lattice is a common-tongue word on a long-i vowel that opens the mouth, two-syllable, and it trails off into a fricative. It's a word everyone uses โ which is what makes it powerful in a lyric. The word arrives in song as a household-word. Anyone hunting rhymes for lattice ends up at the same crossroads: the perfect-rhyme list is short, nothing lands in the family-rhyme column, and the assonance well runs into four figures. Reach for assonance first; the strict list is the safety net underneath it.

Why lattice rhymes the way it does
The phonology of lattice is a two-syllable core: the full-throated /aษช/ (/i/), then it lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 5 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 66, assonance 6,633, and consonance 448. 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. 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. Lattice works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
