Why spout rhymes the way it does
Spout sits on a falling /aส/, transcribed /aส/ in our engine, and snaps shut on a stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 51 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 53, assonance 3,527, and consonance 947. 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. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Spout is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
