Why pullman rhymes the way it does
To understand why pullman rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel — a low-front /æ/, written /æ/ — and the ending, which rings out through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 1 match, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1, assonance 3,978, and consonance 20. 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. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Pullman reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
