Door Hinge?
What do you think
2007-09-26 01:21:58 · 16 answers · asked by Anonymous in Education & Reference ➔ Words & Wordplay
In SOME dialects in which the h is dropped (that is, you say /dor'nj/ ), though not in the "standard" dialects of either British of American English.
For PRACTICAL purposes, if you're writing a poem and really think you need some sort of rhyme for "orange", the best solution is a "NEAR rhyme" in which not every sound needs to match exactly.
Then you might use:
storage, porridge, forage
Florence, abhorrence, warrants, torrents
or "FOUR inch"

I think it's acceptable with the first pronunciation of orange. See below:
orange (awr-inj, or- inj)
door hinge door (dawr) hinge (hinj)

Probably only rhymes in certain dialects.

not really, and for it to sound proper, you really have to slur door hinge....

No, sorry.
I mean if you don't enunciate and say it very quickly it rhymes.
But if you say it the proper way, it really doesn't.

Nope. How about forage? It's close.
