Exact rhymes are words that rhyme exactly the same way. Some rhymes do not end in exactly the same way. Example: Dine and time. They both rhyme, but not perfectly. They do not end the same way. More examples: Plague and made. Bin and prim. Exact rhymes end the same way. Examples: Red and bed. Spine and brine. String and bring.

A term used for words in a rhyming pattern that have some kind of sound correspondence but are not perfect rhymes.

Words that are similar in sound but do not rhyme exactly. For example - send and when, sun and plum, day and made, fellow and hollow.

Ravine and stream are an example of an approximate rhyme. 'He crossed the ravine, that led down to the stream.' Although they don't exactly rhyme, if you were to quickly read the words over they would seem to rhyme.
