what rhymes with orange?

Answer 1

There is only ONE "perfect rhyme" for "orange" -- and it only works in certain dialects of English. That is, "door hinge" (the 'h' silent in this case.)

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" and that ONLY in certain dialects of English.

Some claim that "sporange" is a perfect rhyme, but according to the Oxford English this word is accented on the LAST syllable ("spo-RANJ"), whereas orange is accented on the firstsyllable. (Perfect rhymes MUST have the same accent pattern.) By the same token, "syringe" will not work as a near rhyme, since it accents to opposite syllable.


So, 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"

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! the /j/ sound of the g in orange is the same as the "ch" sound, except that you use the voice)

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 used). 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

These are 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

Answer 4

okay... i asked my techer and here is what she said:
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).

The principle of a half-rhyme in these cases is quite simple. Whereas a full and stressed rhyme (e.g. hand / stand) or even an unstressed rhyme (such as handing / standing) contain vowels that are common to both words, a half-rhyme like orange / lozenge or silver / salver (technically speaking, pararhymes) has obvious differences between vowels in certain syllables.
