"Are there any words that rhyme with orange?

Orange has almost no perfect rhymes. The only word in the 20-volume historical Oxford English Dictionary that rhymes with orange is sporange, a very rare alternative form of sporangium (a botanical term for a part of a fern or similar plant). Silver is another word for which it is almost impossible to find a perfect rhyme: the only candidate is the rare word chilver, which the 20-volume Oxford English Dictionary defines as 'a ewe-lamb' (i.e. a female lamb). "

Awesome. That gets a prize!!!!

(Ya caught me classy, I have to post this)
Tomcatt... I just have to say...... that's impressive. It would be even more impressive if you had written it. Now if you read all 20 volumes, that would really be impressive........ :) But still impressive Tom.

Nite everyone again (Classy too!)

Hence the quotes. :D

Hmmm....20 volumes of Oxford dictionary.....Raidy's thread......hmmmm. Close call on that, though I'm sure Raidy's thread probably has more chuckles in it. :lol:
