Like how condiments add flavor to cooking, rhymes are an added flavor to any creative piece or writing.
A rhyme is when two or more words have similar sounds, typically the same phonemes repeated in the final stressed syllable and any subsequent syllables.
Perfect rhyming is typically employed on purpose in the last lines of writings, poems, or songs to create a melodic or artistic effect.
Roasting someone in a funny and light-hearted manner can be a great way to show your wit and playful side.
And when you add rhyming into the mix, you not only get to deliver a well-crafted insult, but you also get to do it in a way that’s catchy and memorable.
