Why underwear rhymes the way it does

To understand why underwear rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ€” the /ษœหr/ that mid-Atlantic ears class as one vowel, written /ษœหr/ โ€” and the ending, which ends on a liquid that pulls the line forward. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 8, assonance 5,155, and consonance 0. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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. Underwear reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
