What does rhyme mean?

Answer 1

Rhyming is quite simple. Get a short-ish word, say "sock" then think of a word ending with "ock". Rock, Mock, Clock, Knock But, if you add ANY letters onto the end of that rhyming word it turns like... Lock-et, Rock-et See what I mean? The last letters stay the same in the rhyming word. But if you get a word like... "astronaut" you may not find any rhyming words. So in my advice, stick to 6 letters or less when rhyming.

Answer 2

Two or more words that sound alike. Example: cat-hat

As a noun, rhyme means words ending with the same or similar sound or a verse or poem using words with same or similar sounds to end each line.

As a verb, rhyme means to use words with same or similar sounding words in a sentence, verse or poem.

Example:

Mary had a little lamb,

A little pork, a little jam,

An ice cream soda topped with fizz,

Oh, how sick our Mary is.

It means when a word and sounds like another word, like dog and frog. Their vowel sound is the same and their final consonant is the same. Only the beginning consonants are different. For words to rhyme, the last vowel and consonant sounds must be the same.
