Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

There are multiple forms of rhymes and rhyme tactics you can use to perform poetic gymnastics....see what I did there?
Masculine rhymes are one syllable rhymes: sink/pink, defeat/eat, sleep/creep.
Feminine rhymes are two Syllable rhymes: drilling/grilling, reparation/nation, quiet/riot
Triple rhymes are three-syllable rhymes: daringly/glaringly, steadily/readily, audacity/tenacity.
Notice that the syllables are not counted per word, but per rhyme. For help coming up with your own rhymes, try out RhymeZone!
