Why ultrasound rhymes the way it does
Pull ultrasound apart phonetically and you get a three-syllable word with a falling /aส/ (/aส/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close closes on the nasal-stop pairing. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 65 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 140, assonance 4,437, and consonance 532. 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. Ultrasound is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
