Why spoon rhymes the way it does
Spoon sits on a closing /uห/, transcribed /uหn/ in our engine, and lets the nasal carry the tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 53 matches, family rhymes 57, additive and subtractive together 233, assonance 3,182, and consonance 1335. 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 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 spoon, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
