What is a rhyme?A rhyme is something you hear.
When two words end in the same vowel phoneme, or
the same vowel-plus-consonant pair of phonemes, they rhyme.
Examples: 1) sky, try 2) cat, hat
You can't tell a rhyme just by looking at a word!
Examples: Do these pairs rhyme? Do they look like rhymes?
paid, said blood, hood weight, height
eye, sigh home, foam choose, use
Sometimes words almost rhyme, but not quite. We call this a half rhyme.
Examples:
neat, hate peach, couch sorting, parting
Benjamin Zephaniah uses these pairs of words which sound a bit alike but don't rhyme:
gravity, heavenly
freezing, believing
magic, panic
Can you find any others that he uses?
