The Oxford Dictionary of Rhymes


Over 45,000 words

‘A success and a pleasure…Dylan Thomas would have adored it; Byron would have respected it’ — David Morley, Director of the Warwick Writing Programme, University of Warwick

From writing poems to writing birthday cards, and from the garret to the classroom, the Oxford Dictionary of Rhymes has what every writer (or budding writer) needs. It contains rhymes for 45,000 words, including proper names, place names, and foreign terms used in English. This is a must-have tool for writers of all kinds and a superb reference for English teachers, as well as a delight for everyone who likes to play with words.
