Why midweek rhymes the way it does
To understand why midweek rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the singing /iห/, written /iห/ โ and the ending, which snaps shut on a stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 60 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 377, assonance 4,832, and consonance 778. 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. Midweek pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
