Words that rhyme with Razor

Why razor rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for razor starts at the vowel โ the /ษหr/ vowel, IPA /ษหr/ โ and ends where the line flows into the next line via a liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 18 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 149, assonance 5,799, and consonance 654. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. 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 razor tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
