Italian Web Site of the Day

Thursday July 29, 2004
One of the morphological distinctions of the Italian language is the relatively large number of rhyming words. The Rimario Italiano Web site has a tool to simplify the process. Type in the target word and all the terms that rhyme with it are output. For example, enter the word pizza and a list of close to 50 words results (i.e., mizza proemizza anatomizza nizza disorganizza agonizza...). Too bad Dante didn't have access to this when composing his terza rima verses.
