&glosstext=<b>HALF RHYME:</b><br><br>When two words share similar sounds but do not fully rhyme. For example:<br><br>		Lo<b>ve</b> / Ha<b>ve</b><br>		Ki<b>nd</b> / Wi<b>nd</b><br><br>To hear the difference between rhyme and half-rhyme listen carefully and see if you can tell them apart:<br><br>		Lo<b>ve</b> / Ha<b>ve</b> (half-rhyme)<br>		Lo<b>ve</b> / Sho<b>ve</b> (full rhyme)<br><br>Words that half rhyme can also have more than one syllable:<br><br>		Swal<b>low</b> / Fol<b>low</b><br>		Fol<b>low</b> / Shal<b>low</b><br><br>Here we can see that the words "swallow" and "follow" almost sound like full rhymes but differ by the sound of the vowel in the beginning of each word:<br><br>		Sw<u><b>al</b></u>low / F<u><b>ol</b></u>low<br><br>In the following lines from Seamus Heaney's poem 'Mid-Term Break' we find a number of half-rhymes:<br><br>				...my mother held my hand<br><BR>		In hers and coughed out angry tearless <b>sighs</b>.<br>		At ten o'clock the ambulance <b>arrived</b><br>		With the <u>corpse</u>, stanched and bandaged by the 		<u>nurses</u>.
