Can anyone give me a word in the english language that rhymes with month, orange, silver and purple?

Actually, despite common belief there are.

Orange - The Blorange (a hill in Wales), and Mr. [Henry Honeychurch] Gorringe (an actual person - Google it!)

Purple - Hurple (Scottish word: to hobble, walk with a limp) and curple (strap under a horse's saddle)

Silver - Chilver (a ewe lamb)

Month - slightly more tenuous a rhyme. But a mathematical formula including "x^n" could be pronounced, "x to the nth power"...with 'nth' rhyming with 'month'.

do you wear purple?
see if that twerp'll.

I've been told that there are none.

Nothing rhymes with those three words. The closest for silver is pilfer.

Sure can't!

There is a possible rhyme for orange and it is the older English form of the word "norange" (from the Spanish naranja)

I can give you one...

'Orange' rhymes with 'door hinge'

(Thanks to SF Chronicle columnist Jon Carroll)

Burple think it a drink

Hurple rhymes with purple and quicksilver with silver. And there re other words thast don't rhyme like month.

Silver-Quicksilver

As I'm sure you just saw on the front page of the Yahoo homepage, those are the only three words in the English language that have no actual rhyme. I hope somebody proves us wrong though.

There aren't any.

You don't have to rhyme the whole word for a successful rhyming. Just use the last sylable. That will work very well. For Orange use the ange or inge, which ever way you want to rhyme it. And for silver, that's easy- ver. Purple isn't too hard, either, ple.


Lozenge sounds pretty good with orange.
There is a town in Wales called Blorange.
There is hirple that rhymes with purple and curpel. Hirple is walking with a limp and curpel is part of a bridle.
Chilver rhymes with silver. It's a ewe lamb.

And there are many many words that dn't rhyme besides the difficult to do orange, silver, purple.

An elver is a young eel and a close-but-no-cigar rhyme for silver.

Peel me an orange.
Then oil the door-hinge.

Okay, it ain't perfect, but I've seen worse in Lord Byron's stuff.

orange grange-mytle purple-silver i am going to have to think on awhile--just my thoughts and hope this helps---smile and enjoy the night

There is a hill in the South East of Wales called The Blorenge which is very popular with hand gliders , there is also a company called Blorenge books.

Orange/Fringe
Silver/Quiver
Purple/Lapel

can i make up some? ;)

orange silver and month are the only three that have none also purple,wolf,pint dangerous,discombubolate

Well, poetically, you can make a stretch for a lot of things. Month sort of rhymes with the c-word, hunt, bundt, humph, and absconthe (tipping to Middle English). Silver rhymes with the name Milver, milliner, sliver, shiver, etc. Purple rhymes with its good friend nurple, or vorpal, wurmple, truffle, and crumple.

Once again, it depends on how far you are willing to stretch it. Orange, however, aside from "door hinge" is really hard to make any sense out of.

No word in the English language rhymes with those 3 words. Amazing huh? Especially when you consider they're words describing color too.

Well you could always say Strange with a french accent it rhymes with orange then, they both sound the same with an accent. ;)

i swear burple was on Q.I

surple and door hinge ?

There are noooooooooooooooooooooooone (sic).

I'm still working on "bulb" and "silver"

How about urple?

borange?

THOUGH RECKONED A BIT OF A DUNTH

Though reckoned a bit of a dunth,
I made a fine poem up oneth.
I'd have written another
But 'twas far too much bother
To find a word rhyming with month.

Orange = no rhymes.
Silver = closest I can think of is pilfer.
Purple = closest I can think of are circle, girdle and turtle.

Hope that helps!

Well, when someone says "I'd like to have a word with you, that's "a word", so if you ask for a word that sounds like "purple", I'd say slurp'o, per pole, her pill, pupil, per paw

And "orange"? How about...ora edge, o'range, or ain't, or hinge, derange, or ridge

sporange and chilver are real words from the old dictionary. google them.
