Why savoy rhymes the way it does
The phonology of savoy is a two-syllable core: the /ษษช/ diphthong (/ษษช/), then it ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 26 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 125, assonance 381, and consonance 0. The empty consonance column tells you something โ the closing consonant of this word is rare enough that nothing else in English shares it cleanly. Slant work has to come from the vowel side instead. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Savoy is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
