Why seventy rhymes the way it does
Pull seventy apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with the high /ɪ/ (/ɪ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 140, assonance 12,863, and consonance 10. 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. Practical guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With seventy, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
