Why piazza rhymes the way it does
Piazza is built around a low-front /æ/ (/æ/); it's two-syllable and ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 1 match, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 18, assonance 8,660, and consonance 1434. 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 piazza tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives — and often prefers — the slant.
