Why tall rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for tall starts at the vowel โ the wide /ษห/, IPA /ษหl/ โ and ends where the line spills out through a liquid consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 38 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 104, assonance 5,419, and consonance 743. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. 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 tall, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
