Why wondrous rhymes the way it does
Wondrous is two-syllable, its rhyme-relevant vowel sitting on the open /aส/ glide, then it trails off into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 25, assonance 5,479, and consonance 2. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. 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. Wondrous is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
