Words that impossible are rhyme

Not every word in the English language rhymes, and here are just some examples of words that don’t.

Walrus

If you’re writing an ode to anything maritime, mention whales, fish, sharks, and seals, but just not walruses.

Rhythm

There’s a reason why they call it “Rhythm and Blues,” instead of “Blues and Rhythm” and it’s probably because nothing rhymes with rhythm.

Husband

So many words rhyme with “wife”, but what about “husband”? There are none, actually.

Woman

Shakespeare always came up with a work-around for the fact that nothing rhymes with woman. For example, he would compare his woman to a “summer’s day”.

Purple

There are a few words that almost rhyme with “purple,” but nothing perfectly. This is why the poem should remain: “Roses are red, violets are blue.”

The best ways to relax in the fall

Although the sun and warmth make summer the feel-good season of the year, many people find fall – or autumn, depending on what part of the world you live in – a soothing month.

There’s much to admire – the beautiful autumnal colours of the leaves on the trees, the comforting food and drink, like stews, soups and hot chocolate (for pumpkin spiced everything if you like).

Of course, fall can be a stressful time too as schools and universities start their new semesters then, which can mean a new chapter in the lives of many students and teachers. It is therefore essential to find the best way you can to find some relaxation time in fall.

Here are some of the best ways to chill out and destress in fall:

Explore nature around you

Ok, so you might not be donning that summer dress or pulling on the hiking shorts, but there is still a lot to admire about the world around you. Wrap up warm, go for a walk and see the multi-coloured leaves blowing in the wind and breath in that nice fresh air.

Bake some treats

Eating cakes and freshly-baked bread can be comforting, but so can making it. There is something quite therapeutic about rolling dough and mixing together all the ingredients, not to mention the sense of achievement you get at the finished product.

Hook up with friends

As the days get shorter and the weather is a little less favourable, it can be quite easy to retreat into our shells and effectively hibernate. However, that can lead to us introverting and getting down. Meeting up with friends for a coffee (a pumpkin spiced latte if you must) can be a great way to unwind and destress.
