Why latvian rhymes the way it does
Pull latvian apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the short /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 104 matches, family rhymes 99, additive and subtractive together 253, assonance 8,379, and consonance 1412. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Latvian is a word that benefits from the second pass.
