Identify the rhyming words from the list given:
dazzle, puzzle, muscle, capable, reliable

a) dazzle, capable
b) puzzle, muscle
c) capable, puzzle
d) muscle, reliable

Hint:Rhyming words produce similar sounds. Pronounce each word and then find two words that sound similar.

Complete answer:
Rhyming words are two or more words that have the same or similar ending sound. Some examples of rhyming words are goat, boat, moat, float, coat. If the two words sound different, they do not rhyme. For example, car and man do not rhyme; house and grass do not rhyme.

Look at the transliteration of each word - ‘dazzle’ is pronounced as ‘da-zull’, ‘puzzle’ is pronounced as ‘puh-zull’, ‘muscle’ is pronounced as ‘muh-sull’, ‘capable’ is pronounced as ‘cay-pay-bull’, and ‘reliable’ is pronounced as ‘ri-lie-able’.

Now, we know exactly what rhyming words are. Let’s look at our options:

a) dazzle, capable - These words have the same ending sound ‘le’. However, their first parts differ in pronunciation, right until the end. They have different vowel sounds. This is not the required answer. So, this is an incorrect option.
b) puzzle, muscle - These words make the exact same intonation when they are said out loud. They have the same ending sound and have the same pitch throughout the pronunciation. This is the required answer.So, the correct answer is “Option b”.
c) capable, puzzle - These words also have the same ending sounds, however, they do not have the same syllables or the same pitch. This is not the required answer. So, this is an incorrect option.
d) muscle, reliable - These words have the same ending sound, however, the middle sound of the words are completely different, as the vowels are pronounced completely differently. This is not the required answer. So, this is an incorrect option.

Note:
Try to say each word out loud. This will clear up any confusion about the spelling. It is necessary to make sure that the words sound the same and have the same intonation. Then, choose the most appropriate option.
