Question

What are some examples of internal rhyme?

Answer 1

Hint: A rhyme is when two or more words have similar sounds in the final stressed syllables and any subsequent syllables. Most of the time, perfect rhyming is employed in the final position of lines inside poetry or songs for artistic effect.

Complete answer:
Internal rhyme occurs in the centre of lines rather than at the ends of lines in poetry. Internal rhyme can occur in a single line of poetry (with numerous words in the same line rhyming), or the rhyming words can appear in multiple lines.

The position of the rhyme within the line of poetry defines internal rhymes. Internal rhymes are distinguished from end rhymes by the placement of rhymes in the centre of lines. End rhymes have rhyming words at the ends of lines.

Internal rhyme is also known as "middle rhyme" in some cases.
Internal rhymes can arise in any kind of poetry, regardless of metre or rhyme scheme.
 "I drove myself to the lake / and dove into the water," for example, is an example of internal rhyme.

Some more examples of internal rhymes are:
- I went to town and bought a gown/ I took the car, and it was far.
- I had a cat who wore a hat. / He looked cool but felt like a fool.
- I'm taking a trip on a big ship. / I'll travel in style while relaxing all the while.

Note: When most people consider what makes a rhyme, they usually think of only one form of rhyme: perfect rhyme. Only words with identical sounds, such as "game" and "tame," or "table" and "fable," are perfect rhymes. However, there are many other sorts of rhymes, and they can all be used to make internal rhymes.
