Rhyme and graphon

Rhyme

Rhyme /raim / is the repetition of identical or similar terminal sounds, chaining two or more lines of a poem.

Rhyme has several functions:
• it adds a musical quality to the poem;
• it makes the poem easier to remember;
• it affects the pace and tone of the poem.

There are several different types of rhyme:
1. True/perfect/full rhyme (точная)-identical sounds correspond exactly
Boat-float;     might-right;     kite-night;     day-say;     goes-flows

2. Incomplete/imperfect/half rhyme/slant rhyme (приблизительная):
fresh-flesh;   road-boat;   loads-lads;   honour-won her (составная).

3. Eye-rhyme (видимая, приблизительная):
advice-compromise;   have-grave;   love-prove;   flood-doom (ассонансы и консонансы)

4. End rhymes (концевая) fall at the end of the lines. They mark the end of the line.

5. Internal rhymes (внутренняя) occur within the same line:
‘I bring fresh showers to the thirsting flowers’
The internal rhyme has two functions: dissevering and consolidating, realized simultaneously.

According to the way the rhymes are arranged within the stanza, there are some certain models:
• Couplets-aa(смежная)
• Cross rhymes-abab(перекрестная)
• Framing rhyme-abba(рамочная)
