Why veer rhymes the way it does
The rhyme map for veer starts at the vowel โ the /ษหr/ that mid-Atlantic ears class as one vowel, IPA /ษหr/ โ and ends where the line trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 91 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 92, assonance 8,185, and consonance 419. 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. In the room with a guitar: write toward the strict rhyme first, then go back through and replace the obvious ones with the assonance matches that earned their place. Veer is a word that benefits from the second pass.
