Words that rhyme with Weir
On the page, weir is a quotidian anchor; on the ear it's a one-syllable word on the short /ษ/ that trails through a flowing liquid. The lyric earns it by placement, not by selection. Its job in a lyric is a household-word, holding down whatever line it lands in. Anyone hunting rhymes for weir ends up at the same crossroads: the perfect pool is workable but compact, no family rhymes survive the strict family test, and the vowel-only slant pool is deep enough to write a whole album from. The slant pool is huge enough that you'll never need to repeat a rhyme.

Why weir rhymes the way it does
Weir is built around the centred /ษ/ (/ษ/); it's one-syllable and trails through a flowing liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 12 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 161, assonance 3,330, and consonance 675. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Weir works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
