Rhyme in Malay
- A word counts as a rhyme if the last syllable of that word is pronounced identically, following "Sebutan Baku" or pronunciation of "Bahasa Pasar".
- The onset of the final syllable can be ignored as they are often not considered in the Pantun poetic form.
- Example: makan, ikan and badan are rhymes as they end with same /-an/, even though badan has an onset /d/ in last syllable.
- Since stress and accents are suprasegmental features in Malay, they are not considered when determining a word's rhyme.
