Why veg rhymes the way it does
In our engine, veg registers as a one-syllable word on the centred /ษ/ (/ษ/) that shuts cleanly on a stopped consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 56 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 17, assonance 9,867, and consonance 174. 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. 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. Veg reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
