Why pune rhymes the way it does
To understand why pune rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ a back /uห/, written /u/ โ and the ending, which ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 49 matches, family rhymes 28, additive and subtractive together 175, assonance 3,461, and consonance 925. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. 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. Pune rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
