RHYME in English poetry and speech
What are the different types ofrhyme? How important is rhyming in poetry? Why do we even rhyme at all? If you’ve watched any of my videos on poetry, you’ll already have seen how important rhyming can be in English. In this lesson I’ll explain what the requirements are to create a rhyme, and the different types of rhyme, from full rhyme, to half rhyme, to eye rhyme. Rhyming is easy when you know how, and it can happen in everyday conversation too, often by accident, which makes people laugh. This video will also help you with pronunciation, because rhyme is all about what the words sound like!
