Why notebook rhymes the way it does
Notebook is built around the long /uห/ (/uห/); it's three-syllable and snaps shut on a stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 52 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 42, assonance 1,404, and consonance 875. 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Notebook rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
