Why seine rhymes the way it does
Seine is built around the centred /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's one-syllable and lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 104 matches, family rhymes 36, additive and subtractive together 287, assonance 5,580, and consonance 795. That's a generous landscape on both axes. A song can stay in strict rhymes across a verse without repeating itself, then drop into family rhymes for the bridge. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Seine reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
