Why week rhymes the way it does
To understand why week rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ a high-front /iห/, written /iห/ โ and the ending, which ends with a clean stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 52 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 183, assonance 3,489, and consonance 572. 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 guidance: read the song aloud and listen for where a slant would tighten the line. Strict rhymes are the structural skeleton; the slant columns are where the personality of the lyric lives. With week, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
