Why magician rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for magician starts at the vowel โ the short /ษ/, IPA /ษ/ โ and ends where the line hums to a nasal close. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 119 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 137, assonance 10,413, and consonance 842. 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. Magician pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
