	The problem with this is that there are often dozens of possible alternate answers: Come Home, for example. Also, I don't know where you are from, but in the U.S., Chair and Lair rhyme. And while Night and Eight technically fit your definition, they have different final vowel combinations - so they shouldn't rhyme.

	mood should work for good and good rhymes with stood in english

	raggedyanne:	Jan 18th, 2010 at 14:54 GMT		1 point
	Agree with demonstah, and would add that 'good' and 'stood' are also rhyming words in the US.

	I'd add "goes" and "aloes" to the answer for "shoes"; "steak" for the answer to "leak"; and "brood" to the answer for "good" (I'm sure there are many possible others too). To support demonstrah, I'd say that 'chair' and 'lair' certainly also rhyme in the UK; as do 'good' and 'stood'.

	Good and stood rhyme, so do chair and lair, therefore this quiz is rubbish.

	yeah, obviously I wasnt gonna get all of the answers possible on the first go around but if you guys keep critizing it, I'd appreciate it.

	I gave up after trying "brood" for the first one and not having it accepted.

	Research somewhere or don't bother. I tried there, chow, tomb, lead, brow... Don't expect folks to do all of the work for you.

	Googlebird is right, DannyG: if you're not going to post an accurate quiz, don't post one at all. Bread, womb, heath, beneath, where...

	DannyG:	Jan 19th, 2010 at 14:56 GMT		0 points
	I'm trying, I'm trying. The thing is that some words don't even rhyme with the answer word... like... comb, bomb and womb don't rhyme at all together, and I've tried to aviod using words like lead because they have two pronounciations. Bread's already there.

	I think for "Chose" you could use words like close (as in "close call") because the s in chose has a z sound. Nice quiz!

	robc:	Jan 20th, 2010 at 02:45 GMT		1 point
	"whose" for "chose"

	Penguins:	Jan 20th, 2010 at 03:40 GMT		1 point
	i think "Rome" should work for "come" unless you dont want proper Nouns

	trumpetchic94:	Jan 20th, 2010 at 21:57 GMT		1 point
	"straight" should work for "night" and "foes" for "shoes"

	LoveShack:	Jan 21st, 2010 at 11:42 GMT		0 points
	there are hundreds of alternate answers, and loads of them rhyme in some accents but not in others (ie. N. England vs. S. England). Stupid.

	Add dose.

	adowns:	Feb 27th, 2010 at 22:29 GMT		1 point
	I would add "move" (for "cove"). Interesting quiz, though!

	hoes for shoes (teehee) and (be)hind for wind

	WyvernSabres:	Apr 9th, 2010 at 13:32 GMT		3 points
	Nice try, but probably too difficult to make it work really well. Also accept "Head" for knead, and "Wind (verb)" for Wind (noun).

	jefe_:	Apr 23rd, 2010 at 02:19 GMT		3 points
	Great concept! Bind, Hind

	asatria:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 04:37 GMT		-2 points
	Solid quiz. I'd add "grows" for "shoes" though.

	cairo140:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 05:37 GMT		3 points
	should accept "oboes"

	krush:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 09:25 GMT		2 points
	@asatria huh???

	Scott:	Apr 30th, 2010 at 22:00 GMT		1 point
	"allow" for "know"

	evadiva:	Jun 9th, 2010 at 04:58 GMT		2 points
	A valiant effort. It looks like you've added a lot of the suggestions above already. Only one I have: "how" for the "know" clue.

	Cove and Dove rhyme depending on the pronunciation of Dove.

	object_holder:	Oct 28th, 2010 at 16:14 GMT		1 point
	How about "blood," "tomatoes" and "bequeath"?

	lucyzoe:	Jan 26th, 2011 at 13:10 GMT		2 points
	how about head for knead? i figured that would be the most guessed

	xolkan:	Feb 12th, 2012 at 21:23 GMT		1 point
	@asatria, grows doesn't end in -oes. The word has to have the same ending as the given word. So grows shouldn't be on here.
