Slant Rhymes
Perfect rhyme—also called full rhyme, exact rhyme, or true rhyme—is a form of rhyme between two words or phrases, satisfying the following conditions: *The stressed vowel sound in both words must be identical, as well as any subsequent sounds. For example, the words "trouble" and "bubble" (from Shakespeare's Macbeth) form a perfect rhyme. *The onset of the stressed syllable in the words must differ. For example, "bean" and "green" is a perfect rhyme, while "leave" and "believe" is not. Word pairs that satisfy the first condition but not the second (such as the aforementioned "leave" and "believe") are technically identities (also known as identical rhymes or identicals). Homophones, being words of different meaning but identical pronunciation, are an example of identical rhyme. Imperfect rhyme Half rhyme or imperfect rhyme, sometimes called near-rhyme, lazy rhyme, or slant rhyme, is a type of rhyme formed by words with similar but not identical sounds. In most insta ...

Rhyme
A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounds (usually, the exact same phonemes) in the final stressed syllables and any following syllables of two or more words. Most often, this kind of perfect rhyming is consciously used for a musical or aesthetic effect in the final position of lines within poems or songs. More broadly, a rhyme may also variously refer to other types of similar sounds near the ends of two or more words. Furthermore, the word ''rhyme'' has come to be sometimes used as a shorthand term for any brief poem, such as a nursery rhyme or Balliol rhyme. Etymology The word derives from Old French ''rime'' or ''ryme'', which might be derived from Old Frankish ''rÄ«m'', a Germanic term meaning "series, sequence" attested in Old English (Old English ''rÄ«m'' meaning "enumeration, series, numeral") and Old High German ''rÄ«m'', ultimately cognate to Old Irish ''rÃm'', Greek ' ''arithmos'' "number". Alternatively, the Old French words may derive from Latin ''rhythmus'', from ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
List Of English Words Without Rhymes
The following is a list of English words without rhymes, called refractory rhymes—that is, a list of words in the English language that rhyme with no other English word. The word "rhyme" here is used in the strict sense, called a ''perfect rhyme'', that the words are pronounced the same from the vowel of the main stressed syllable onwards. The list was compiled from the point of view of Received Pronunciation (with a few exceptions for General American), and may not work for other accents or dialects. Multiple-word rhymes (a phrase that rhymes with a word, known as a ''phrasal'' or ''mosaic'' rhyme), self-rhymes (adding a prefix to a word and counting it as a rhyme of itself), imperfect rhymes (such as ''purple'' with ''circle''), and identical rhymes (words that are identical in their stressed syllables, such as ''bay'' and ''obey'') are often not counted as true rhymes and have not been considered. Only the list of one-syllable words can hope to be anything near complete; f ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Monorhyme
Monorhyme is a passage, stanza, or entire poem in which all lines have the same end rhyme. The term "monorhyme" describes the use of one ( mono) type of repetitious sound (rhyme). This is common in Arabic, Latin and Welsh work, such as ''The Book of One Thousand and One Nights'', e.g. ''qasida'' and its derivative ''kafi''. Some styles of monorhyme use the end of a poem's line to utilize this poetic tool. The Persian ''ghazal'' poetry style places the monorhyme before the refrain in a line. This is seen in the poem "Even the Rain" by Agha Shahid Aili: :"''What will suffice for a true-love knot? Even the rain?'' :'' But he has bought grief's lottery, bought even the rain.''" The monorhyme ''knot'' is introduced before the line’s refrain or pause. The corresponding rhyme ''bought'' is used in the next line. Although these are not the last words of the lines in the poem, monorhyme is incorporated in identical rhyme schemes in each line. Example An example of monorhyme is the poem " ...

Holorime
Holorime (or holorhyme) is a form of rhyme where two very similar sequences of sounds can form phrases composed of different words and with different meanings. For example, the two lines of Miles Kington's poem "A Lowlands Holiday Ends in Enjoyable Inactivity" are pronounced the same in some British English dialects: Holorime pairs may also be referred to as oronyms. In French In French poetry, ''rime richissime'' ("very rich rhyme") is a rhyme of more than three phonemes. A holorime is an extreme example. For example (Marc Monnier): :''Gall, amant de la Reine, alla, tour magnanime !'' (Gallus, the Queen's lover, went – a magnanimous gesture! –) :''Galamment de l'Arène à la Tour Magne, à Nîmes.'' (Gallantly from the Arena to the Great Tower, at Nîmes.)" : Another notable French exponent of the holorime was Alphonse Allais: :''Par les bois du djinn, où s'entasse de l'effroi,'' (By the woods of the djinn, where fear abounds,) :''Parle et bois du gin, ou cent tasses ...

This Little Piggy
"This Little Piggy" or "This Little Pig" is an English-language nursery rhyme and fingerplay. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 19297. Lyrics One popular version is: Fingerplay The rhyme is usually counted out on an infant or toddler's toes, each line corresponding to a different toe, usually starting with the big toe and ending with the little toe. A foot tickle is added during the "Wee...all the way home" section of the last line. The rhyme can also be seen as a counting rhyme, although the number of each toe (from one for the big toe to five for the little toe) is never stated. Origins In 1728, the first line of the rhyme appeared in a medley called "The Nurses Song". The first known full version was recorded in ''The Famous Tommy Thumb's Little Story-Book'', published in London about 1760. In this book, the rhyme goes: This pig went to market, That pig stayed home; This pig had roast meat, That pig had none; This pig went to the barn's door, And cried week, w ...

Internal Rhyme
In poetry, internal rhyme, or middle rhyme, is rhyme that occurs within a single line of verse, or between internal phrases across multiple lines. By contrast, rhyme between line endings is known as end rhyme. Internal rhyme schemes can be denoted with spaces or commas between lines. For example, denotes a three-line poem with the same internal rhyme on each line, and the same end rhyme on each line (which does not rhyme with the internal rhyme). Examples The following example is in limerick form. Each stressed syllable rhymes with another stressed syllable using one of three rhyme sets. Each rhyme set is indicated by a different highlight color. Note that the yellow rhyme set provides internal rhyme in lines 1, 2, and 5, and end rhymes in lines 3 and 4, whereas the blue set is entirely internal and the pink is exclusively end rhymes.
