Words that rhyme with Weekday
Singers reaching for weekday find an unguarded everyday word on the surface and a two-syllable core on the rising /eษช/ underneath โ one that ends on an open vowel. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. The slant pool, matched on vowel alone, is huge, family rhymes are simply absent, and the perfect-rhyme column is well-stocked. Type rhymes for weekday into any dictionary and the answer is roughly the same: the pull is toward slant work. Use the strict rhymes for the structural beats and let slant rhymes do the interior work.

Why weekday rhymes the way it does
Weekday is built around the rising /eษช/ (/eษช/); it's two-syllable and leaves the vowel hanging open. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 267 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 2172, assonance 4,359, and consonance 0. 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 weekday, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
