this article makes little sense
[edit]A "rime riche is a form of rhyme with identical sounds, if different spellings." So far so good. Then "in French poetry, rhymes are sometimes classified [...] according to the number of rhyming sounds in the two words [...]. For example to rhyme "parla" with "sauta" would be a poor rhyme [...], to rhyme "cheval" with "fatal" a sufficient rhyme, and "grise" with "brise" a rich rhyme."
Hold on: each of these examples (parla/sauta, cheval/fatal, grise/brise) rhymes exactly one sound. (What is a "sound"?) What makes cheval/fatal better than parla/sauta? Is it the final consonant? And what about grise/brise? That doesn't meet the definition of "identical sounds" since the words start differently.
Then we have "a good French example" where the rhyme is éléphants/enfants. How is this a rime riche? These words do not have identical sounds. And does the '-nts' ending count as a consonant even though it's effectively only pronounced as part of the vowel? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.72.227.14 (talk) 16:37, 3 November 2021 (UTC)
