An agreement in sound that occurs when the rhyme mate is broken into two parts by being hyphenated at the end of the line and its first part rhymes perfectly with the search word while the second part continues at the beginning of the next line. When Rhyme Genie displays broken rhymes the line break is indicated by an inserted swung dash (e.g. mu~sic instead of music).

For dictionary entries with multiple words Rhyme Genie always matches the final word of the phrase. To find only single words simply deselect the phrases, proper nouns and charted songs options.
