Great, and great fun for creating poems.
It took a few minutes for me to figure out how to use this dictionary, but now that I understand it, it’s really easy to use. I recommend it.

A bit weird, but useful!
So I took a chance despite some reviews. Here’s the thing that may be putting people off: It doesn’t give you full words and list the rhymes. It gives you ending word SOUNDS and lists rhyming words! So if you are looking for “wash” you have to go to “ash”. BTW, there are 3 entries for the different pronunciations for “ash”.Or take “harmony” for example. I looked up “ony” and it referred me to “ani”, which listed a few possibilities, then also referred me to “anny”.And yes, it’s “all vowels”, including “y”. There’s a usage guide at the front, as well as pronunciations symbols. So you do have to do a little work to find what you’re looking for, but can you imagine how enormous and redundant this would be if it listed everything out like a typical dictionary?!

Good Resource
Great dictionary in a handy size. Too bad Amazon once again didn’t care to pack it to protect it from damage.

Best book in the world for writers, rappers.
My husband started writing songs again and he is absolutely in love with this book! So many varieties of 2, 3, and 4 syllable rhymes that go to 1 word! Even things that he didnt think of. If your looking to take your rap up a notch then this book is for you!The websters rhyming dictionary pairs perfectly with this.

Outstanding product when trying to find just the right word for a poem.
This is very easy to use, especially the Kindle version. I write poetry and this is one of the best resources I have found when searching for just the correct word. I like the Kindle version because I can type the sound in the search window and it immediately finds rhyming words.

Rhyming Dictionary
I have never used another rhyming resource so I can’t say that it is the best I’ve ever used, but I can say that it was easy to use and it more than met my needs and expectations. I WON’T need to purchase another book of this kind because of finding this one insufficient.So go for it if you are in the market for such help .You will find that it is the only book of its kind that you will need to purchase.

A Great Tool, But You Must Learn How to Use It First
It’s a great tool once you learn how to use it. But take your time to understand it and it will become indispensable for the songwriter and poet within you. You also need to study a few songwriting methods that show you how to make imperfect rhymes. That will really open this book up for you.

数年前にこれのポケットバージョンを求め、見つからなくなったので印刷版とkindle両方とも求めました。英語の詩を書く時には絶対に必要です。日本語にも似たような辞書があれば嬉しいですがね。The kindle version is very useful since the content part has a link leading to the word. The printed version comes in handy too, but it’s much faster to search with kindle than paper. I had the paper version for several years already, and I must say that it’s a must have for people who create poems for hobby or school.
