Why yummy rhymes the way it does

In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 7 matches, family rhymes 9, additive and subtractive together 12, assonance 4,252, and consonance 499. The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines.

With yummy, the slant work is doing more weight-bearing than it looks.
