Why sears rhymes the way it does
The phonology of sears is a one-syllable core: the rhotic schwa (/ษหr/), then it ends in a hissed consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 58 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 106, assonance 11,008, and consonance 174. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. 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. Sears works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
