Why tweet rhymes the way it does
The phonology of tweet is a one-syllable core: the singing /iห/ (/iห/), then it lands on a stopped consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 117 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 180, assonance 4,479, and consonance 879. 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Tweet rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
