Why mulberry rhymes the way it does
Pull mulberry apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with the clipped /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close opens out at the end. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 9, assonance 4,330, and consonance 4. 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. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for mulberry tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives — and often prefers — the slant.
