Meaning of Rhyme

Two words are said to rhyme with each other when they have the same final vowel sound, or the same final vowel and consonant sounds. In oral English, words which rhyme with each other are those that have the same sound or combination of sounds in their corresponding syllables, usually at the last syllables of the words, or from their last syllables to the second or third to last syllables of the words.

For rhyme to occur between two words, the vowel sounds in the syllables of the words under consideration must be of the same quality. The final consonant sounds of the words must be the same also, while the initial or middle consonant sounds of the words may or may not be the same.
