Why shitting rhymes the way it does
Shitting is built around the clipped /ɪ/ (/ɪ/); it's two-syllable and ends on a humming nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 31 matches, family rhymes 1, additive and subtractive together 73, assonance 12,700, and consonance 224. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. 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. Shitting reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
