Why wikileaks rhymes the way it does
To understand why wikileaks rhymes the way it does, start with the vowel โ the singing /iห/, written /iห/ โ and the ending, which ends in a hissed consonant. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 24 matches, family rhymes 3, additive and subtractive together 216, assonance 5,136, and consonance 282. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Wikileaks is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
