Why sim rhymes the way it does
Sim sits on the tight /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and lets the line ring through a nasal. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 25 matches, family rhymes 109, additive and subtractive together 49, assonance 10,391, and consonance 544. 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. Sim reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
