Why moment rhymes the way it does
In our engine, moment registers as a two-syllable word on the centred /ษ/ (/ษ/) that lands on the nasal-into-stop combo. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 3, additive and subtractive together 137, assonance 7,466, and consonance 56. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Moment is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
