Am I the only one who thinks orange and door hinge don’t rhyme at all? I guess it all depends on how you pronounce orange. Or Ang could rhyme with door hinge I suppose, but if I was gonna pronounce it like that I would rather rhyme it with porridge

It's called a slant rhyme, and yeah like you said, it depends on saying the word in a specific way to make it rhyme. Like "orringe"

Door hinge is more of a perfect rhyme but I do like porridge

Door is a perfect rhyme for the first syllable or and hinge is a perfect rhyme for the second inge. As long as you pronounce it that way obviously

People pronounce the -ange like -inge? That makes no sense to me and I’ve never heard anyone say the words similarly. Do people say “oringe” or “door-ahnge”?

Oringe is the only way I pronounced it and heard the majority of ppl say it that way. Never heard ppl say "or onj"
