Why ritter rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for ritter starts at the vowel โ the rhotic schwa, 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 25 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 14, assonance 10,957, and consonance 932. 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. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Ritter pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
