Why marble rhymes the way it does
Pull marble apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the /ษหr/ vowel (/ษหr/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close spills out through a liquid consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 3 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 70, assonance 7,753, and consonance 25. 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. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Marble reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
