Why sip rhymes the way it does
To understand why sip rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the tight /ษช/, written /ษช/ โ and the ending, which lands on a closed syllable. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 113 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 101, assonance 6,997, and consonance 439. 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. 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 sip, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
