Words that rhyme withprice

masculine
Masculine this word

Ends on a stressed syllable — a one-syllable rhyme, or a multisyllable word whose primary stress lands last. The rhyme hits the final beat, the way most rhymes in songs do.

Examples

love · dove · today · believe · forgot

Feminine

Ends with an unstressed syllable trailing the stressed one — always at least two syllables. The rhyme lands a beat earlier and trails off softly.

Examples

river · mother · follow · breaking · mountain

Masculine and feminine endings rarely sing together (the rhyme lands on a different beat), so they're kept apart here.

How it feels

Off the rhyme scale — identity is repetition, not resolution. Shown so you can spot it, not reach for it.

fuse / confuse — both stressed syllables are 'fuse'

“price” at line end — from real songs

Waiting to find out what priceGoing through all these things twice
— Bob Dylan, “Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again” · rhymes price / twice
Who's prepared to pay the priceFor a trip to paradise?

I guess every form of refuge has its priceGiven to a man with hands as cold as ice

How to read the 2956 results

Tiers follow Pat Pattison's stability scale — pick the resolution your line needs, not just the closest sound. Bold words are common in lyrics; a struck-through word with a cliché flag is an overworked pair; a vermilion dot counts how often the pair appears at line end in our corpus of real songs.

Perfect rhyme 30
Same stressed vowel, same sounds after it, different beginning. Full resolution — the strongest closure a rhyme can give a line.
Family rhyme 456
The consonants after the vowel are swapped for phonetic siblings — T↔D, M↔N, S↔Z. Nearly as stable as perfect rhyme, with far more word choices.
Additive 871
Same vowel, but one word carries an extra consonant after the shared ending. The added sound softens the landing slightly.
Subtractive 188
Same vowel, but one word stops a consonant early. A slightly clipped, softer resolution than perfect rhyme.
Assonance 904
Only the stressed vowel matches; the consonants after it are unrelated. Loose and open — useful when a section should stay unresolved.
Consonance 507
The vowels differ but the ending consonants match. The faintest echo of all — texture rather than closure.
Identity 10
The whole stressed syllable repeats, beginning included. That's repetition, not rhyme — the line echoes instead of resolving.
