No

The only thing that comes to mind is archangel.
That’s a good one. Glad you spotted it
It is difficult to find normal words that don’t rhyme. But one can find words like floccinaucinihilipilification. 🙂
Yep! that’s not a display of vanity and I know it, it’s a habit some people have of estimating something as worthless. Mississippi is a hard word to spell, right? can you spell it with two letters?
I can only think of Archangel rhyming with Angel
That’s correct, Carol DM got it first though.
I did not see her answer though.
Of course not, why else would you bother to answer, thank you for participating and have yourself a fabulous day 😉
I have sent you a message. Read it at leisure.
There are words that do not rhyme and because rhymes are hard to come by I write freestyle poetry and many times I just find some words that rhyme naturally
Jolly good idea! I’m glad it’s working out for you, Sandra.
It looks like you got me there. What I know was Orange has no rhyme.
But it does have a rhyme, as I wrote above, Blorange, a mountain in Wales.
