LittleWyvern Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 There's some sort of hotlinking protection going on with the image, I can't see it. I've rehosted it on imgur if anybody else can't see it: Quote

Guest Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 I'm going to make a new English rule to end the loneliness of orange and silver. Silver rhymes with orange. Quote

Vort Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Posted October 3, 2013 It's not nice to fool the manager of this site.Somehow, I'm reminded of those old "If you think it's butter, but it's not -- it's Chiffon" commercials: " " (followed by thunder and lightning strikes) Quote
prisonchaplain Posted October 3, 2013 Report Posted October 3, 2013 There are a lot of words that kinda rhyme with orange... change range strange arrange (now that's a real close one)... but yeah, "what" does not rhyme with orange in any conceivable way I can think of. Not sure why some thought it did... :-) Quote

Vort Posted October 3, 2013 Author Report Posted October 3, 2013 Those don't rhyme with orange. I don't even think arrange can be considered a half-rhyme of orange as the stress is on the wrong syllable.I understand that certain English accents find that "orange" and "door hinge" rhyme. Accents are great things.- Well, my wife's off to the West Indies.- Jamaica?- No, she went of her own accord.(Thank you, Led Zeppelin.) Quote

I don't even think arrange can be considered a half-rhyme of orange as the stress is on the wrong syllable.The operative word in my claims was the very clinical "kinda." By that standard, even derange works. Quote
pam Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 The operative word in my claims was the very clinical "kinda." By that standard, even derange works. PC forgive me but I feel you might be a bit deranged if you think it rhymes with it. Quote
rameumptom Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Do you know that this issue was settled a very long time ago by HR Pufnstuff and his friends? (Egads! the things our memories retain....) Quote

Guest Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 How about orange and porridge?Or carnage?Regards,FinrockNo and no.-ridge nor -nage does not in any way sound the same as -range. It's missing that "n" sound. Quote
prisonchaplain Posted October 4, 2013 Report Posted October 4, 2013 Anatess is awfully strict. For me, to rhyme should be sublime. If you're too strict, you're gonna get licked! (Yeah, think Beefche's avatar...lol) Quote
