Why neutron rhymes the way it does
Neutron is built around the short /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's two-syllable and lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 84 matches, family rhymes 30, additive and subtractive together 155, assonance 5,663, and consonance 1467. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. 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. Neutron is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
