Why patio rhymes the way it does

In our engine, patio registers as a two-syllable word on the front /ษ›/ (/ษ™/) that leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 3, assonance 6,654, and consonance 1077. 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. 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. Patio rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
