Why tripped rhymes the way it does
Pull tripped apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the short /ษ/ (/ษ/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close snaps shut on a stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 26 matches, family rhymes 3, additive and subtractive together 82, assonance 11,409, and consonance 124. 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. Tripped reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
