Poll: An argument i am having

[MattRooney06]

Ok baisicly me and my friends are having a rapidly escelating argument (i just punched a chair)and i want to know if you guys are with me.......or against me


in short


Fisherman and Fireman do they rhyme


so what do you think

my argument is that they have the same ending (fish+dish, Can+man Fisherman+Fireman......

and yeah thats about it..... your thoughts?

 

[Jaranja]

I'm going to say no. Just because they don't sound rhymey.

 

[arsenicCatnip]

No, they don't rhyme in any way. Whoever says they do needs to go back to school.

This.

What a ridiculous argument. Not like my friends and I are any better but wow.

 

[siffty]

No they don't. Can't you argue about something better?

Heres one "Who is the hottest teacher at your school?" That one is guaranteed to start a real life flame war.

we had this p.e teacher WOOOOO DOGGY

Fisherman Gresham Van
Fireman Higher Ken!
Fisherman Fireman ... see, they just don't rhyme

 

[Jaygee02]

I'd say a bit - not a perfect rhyme, but since both words end in the same vowel sound it is passable for a song maybe.

 

[zen5887]

Its an imperfect rhyme, the same kind as Orange and Door hinge.

I think.

But, regardless of what kind of rhyme it is, those words do in fact rhyme. It isn't a very strong rhyme though.

Are you serious? Or drunk? Or high? Of course they don't rhyme! In fact, I've never heard any two words that rhymed less. [small]Maybe that's an exaggeration.[/small]

 

[Batfred]

Not even close. Sorry. You spotting a pattern here?

If we were in your favour, you would crowd your mates around this forum. Are you even going to show them this now?

 

[Chipperz]

No they don't. Can't you argue about something better?

Heres one "Who is the hottest teacher at your school?" That one is guaranteed to start a real life flame war.

Oooh yeah! This is good for a laugh.

EDIT - Oops, content! Yeah, they don't rhyme.

"Fish" and "Arseburger". That's as un-rhymee as I can think of on the spur of the moment.

 

[JEBWrench]

Nope. They don't rhyme at all. To rhyme, they need to sound similar.

 

[Jiggletits]

As I understand, you basis for saying this is that you think 'man' rhymes with 'man'...

Need I say more?

EDIT: Actually one more thing. I shouldn't be surprised I suppose, given your atrocious spelling.

 

[GundamSentinel]

It's an alliteration (both consonance and assonance, I believe), which is not rhyme.

 

[zen5887]

People seem to be letting the concept of an near rhyme slip.

Man rhymes with man because of the -an part, same with ban rhymes with man.
