Why resolute rhymes the way it does
Pull resolute apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with a back /uห/ (/u/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 97, assonance 13,000, and consonance 2. 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. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Resolute works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
