does n e thing ryme with orange????

Answer 1

If you are looking for a PERFECT rhyme-- in which the sound of everything from the vowel with the word's main accent to the end of the word-- matches, the ONLY rhyme is "door hinge" (with silent h) and that ONLY in certain dialects of English.

For MOST dialects, you'll have to settle for some sort of "near rhyme" where MOST of the sounds match. The best match in this case would have to include the accented "OR" (In other words "courage" and "syringe" are NOT to be preferred; also counting against syringe is the fact that the accent falls on a different syllable!)

So I think your best near rhyme would be a two-word rhyme combining a word ending with OR and "inch". Frankly, the only remotely plausible one I can come up with is:
"four inch"
("nch" doesn't match "nge" perfectly, but it's close!)

More useful might be
forage, porridge, storage

which match all but one sound (and that sound is completely omitted, which usually provides a closer match than if some completely unrelated sound is use). Now if you can speak the lines as if you have a cold, they might end up sounding like PERFECT rhymes for "ora(n)ge"!


Next best is to try something like:
foreign, warren, floren, Lauren

not quite as good because it lacks the FINAL consonant, which tends to be important in rhyming.
But adding an 's' --warrens, florens, Lauren's -- may improve the rhyme, since the sound (actually a 'z' sound) roughly corresponds to the "g" of orange. In this case, you can add:
Florence, abhorrence, warrants, torrents

Close to this is all the words ending with -ORing (though in this case the i is longer, almost an "ee" sound; but in certain accents that pronounce "ing" with a hard g at the end it almost works!). So you might use:
flooring, goring, poring, pouring, roaring, scoring, shoring, snoring, soaring, storing, warring, adoring, deploring, exploring, ignoring, imploring, restoring

(Of course, in more informal speech any of these might be pronounced as if the ending were -in' so that they are just the same as the previous group.)

Answer 2

the reason nothing rymes with orange is just by random chance. It just happen to be no other sylables in the english language that match exactly. Just like nothing rymes with purple or silver. Just happen. There are two words that sort of sound like orange and that is door hinge!

Answer 3

Nothing other than made-up words. I think the answer would come if we look at the linguistics of the word orange.

Rhyming words correlate based on the sound of their endings. The end of the word "orange" has two sounds. The "n" sound, an alveolar nasal sound. Alveolar, because your tongue has to touch up to the alveolar ridge in your mouth in order to make the sound. Nasal, because you have to use your sinuses as a sounding chamber. There are other nasal sounds, and they all revolve around the "n" and "m". Since nasals are a different type of sound than most other consonants, they are a bit difficult to produce in succession.

The sound that is rooted in "ge", is actually two sounds, represented by "dʒ". "dʒ" is one of the most difficult sounds to produce, since it is a combination of sounds upon another combination of sounds. The "ʒ" is a combination of "t" and "z". So the "dʒ" root is very very quickly pronounced as "dtz".

So the end of orange is a very complex pronunciation. Since it is difficult to use, it is not common for people to make words with those types of sounds, especially together like that. Since people are less likely to make words that sound like "orange", the sound of "orange" never got assimilated into any base sounds of the english language.

If you think about it, the English language is composed of many base sounds that sound correct within their contexts, but say, a Japanese word would sound of of place. I could make up a word to prove the point. melitin.

You know how to pronounce the word melitin because it is a natural word in the english language, even though it has no meaning to either of us. But if I said "acllaumpaer", that would not be natural to the english language (acllaumpaer is a real Norse word fyi).

Since "orange" is not a normal sound to english, it is vastly ignored, so there is no rhyme for it.

Answer 4

Orange is one of those words that famously has nothing perfectly to rhyme with it. The other one is silver. However, the Oxford Rhyming Dictionary does show both these words as having half-rhymes (such as lozenge with orange and salver with silver)

Answer 5

There is actually a word that rhymes with orange. It is called BLORENGE, pronnounced BLOR-ENGE. It is a mountain near Abergavenny in Wales. Another very close rhyming word is lozenge.

Answer 6

Penguin, Purple and Orange have no rhymes. I read that on the back of a penguin wrapper once.

Answer 7

you're joking, accurate? i understand someone who were given fired for messing round on Yahoo all day at artwork inspite of warnings. i'm allowed on the information superhighway at artwork, yet I purely ever bypass there on my lunchbreak to verify information or if something truly historic is taking position (then our boss encourages it). i do not do message forums, yahoo solutions, or blogs etc. at artwork even on my wreck. we are dealt with like accountable adults, yet they do have the skill to limit our get admission to. i do not want to debris that up. i'd like to have a workstation, although, so i might want to sit down down out on my deck interior the summer season in the course of the evenings and do Y!A, etc. which will be staggering!
