Rhyming Dictionary
Type any word to see its rhyme family, or browse all 80 curated rhyme groups. Built for songwriters, poets, students and anyone stuck on a verse.
What this tool does
Type a word like light and the dictionary shows its rhyme family: night, bright, flight, right, sight. Prefer browsing? The full list of about 80 rhyme families is one click away, each a set of words sharing the same ending sound.
What counts as a rhyme here
Groups are built on shared ending sounds, the way songwriters actually rhyme: cat, hat and mat share their final sound, as do day, play and say. These are true rhymes rather than slant rhymes, so every word in a family genuinely sounds alike at the end.
Worked example
A songwriter needs a rhyme for fire. The dictionary returns the family fire, wire, tire, hire: four ready-made line endings.
Limitations
Only words in the curated families are covered, so unusual words may come up empty; the browse list shows everything available. Slant rhymes (like heart and dark) are deliberately excluded. In Japanese, groups share final kana, which is how rhyme works in Japanese verse and rap.

Frequently asked questions
What is a rhyme family?
A set of words that share the same ending sound, like cat, hat, mat, bat and sat. Each family in this dictionary holds words that truly rhyme, not just near-matches.
Why is there no rhyme for my word?
The dictionary covers about 80 curated families per language. If your word is not in any family, use the browse list to find the closest ending sound and adapt from there.
Do you include slant rhymes or near rhymes?
No. Every family contains true rhymes with matching ending sounds. For creative writing, true rhymes are the reliable starting point; you can loosen them yourself.
Can I use this for songwriting?
Yes, that is one of its main uses. Type your line's last word, pick a rhyme from its family, and build the next line around it.
How does rhyming work in the Japanese version?
Japanese groups share final kana, for example words ending in あい or しい. That mirrors how rhyme works in Japanese rap and poetry, where the ending sound carries the rhyme.
