I have been reading and learned something I didn't know - well I sort of did, but it didn't really register..........

There are five words in the English language which doesn't rhyme with any other word.... now I've tried to think of words that may rhyme with them and there isn't - well not in my little brain there isn't and I suppose they wouldn't put it out there if they hadn't checked.

Anyway these words are...........

BULB
ORANGE
ANGEL
SILVER
MONTH

So if you can find any other words which rhyme with any of them, please let Dictionary.com know...........

Here are 27 that require Perfect rhyming; UK English. I see you have Angel.

Angel, angry, anxious, chimney, citrus, comment, elbow, empty, engine,
Foible. Foyer, hundred(th), husband, liquid, luggage, monster, neutron,
Nothing, olive, penguin, polka, problem, sanction, sandwich, secret,
Something, zigzag.

Some words can be made to rhyme for Poetic reasons but are not called Perfect rhymes.
There are also other classes of word rhyming using words from other languages etc.

I'm afraid I'd need more than coffee to be able to think of anything. LOL
