rhymes with present(means gift)?

Question

i need words that rhyme with present

Answer 1

If you want a PERFECT rhyme -- in which the sounds from the accented vowel to the end are identical (and the SAME syllable is accented!)-- you need words that end with the sound /-EZnt/. I believe the only possibilities are:

peasamt. pheasant, pleasant, bezant

But it may be that you only need a "NEAR" rhyme, in which MOST of the sounds are the same, or at least very close. That opens up many other possibilities. Which ones will work depend on the specific context you are using them in, the type of poetry, etc. (For example, humorous verse, like a limerick, typically does not require as precise a match.) Simply try them out and see what works for YOUR needs.

For the most useful near rhymes, try the following (roughly in order of nearness):

(1) Words in which all the VOWELS from the accented one on match ("full assonance") and the final consonant or consonant cluster matches exactly ("final consonance")

a) with very close matches for other consonants -- in this case, for the /z/ sound of 'present', try

* the /s/ sound (same as /z/ but not using the voice):

crescent, fluorescent, incessant, quiescent, suppressant, adolescent, convalescent, effervescent, evanescent, incandescent, iridescent, luminescent, obsolescent, antidepressant

* other s-type sounds, such as /sh/

prescient

b) consonants that do not match, or match less well:

pedant, penchant, pendant, tenant, trenchant, attendant, resplendant


(2) FULL cononance (matching after the accented vowel) with vowels that are CLOSE. In this case, the best matches are with short vowels (esp. short a or short i) in place of the short e of the accented syllable:

hasn't, isn't
wasn't

(3) Full assonance, and final consonance. . . EXCEPT with slight variations in th final consonant cluster:

a) /nd/ instead of /nt/

* with /z/, /s/ or /sh/ in the middle:

resined, lessened, freshened,

* with other consonants in the middle

deadened, deafened, legend, leavened, beaconed, second, reckoned

b) /n/ (dropping the final /t/)

* with z, etc.
resin, lessen, lesson, freshen, Hessian

* with other consonants:

deaden, deafen, leaven, beacon, reckon

c) final /t/, drop /n/, fairly close match of /z/ sound:

Knesset, exit

d) same as #3c, but with final /d/:

bless-ed


(4) Like the types listed in #3, but with other short vowels (esp. short a or i) in place of the short e. (Since these are more distant in other ways, having an s-type sound in the middle is highly desirable.)

wizened
passion, impassion(ed), fashion(ed), ration(ed)
vision, envision(ed), incision, derision
cousin. buzzin'
