No word rhymes with orange. In an episode of the old children's TV show H. R. Pufnstuf, the character Witchiepoo sang a song that went: Oranges poranges, who says, oranges poranges, who says, oranges poranges, who says-- there ain't no rhyme for oranges! |

True, there is no rhymes with orange according to this dictionary of rhymes:

| orange is obviously a weird word, because there are no rhymes for it at all. |

Not in French though:
Range, orange, mange, fange, qu'entends-je, change, ange, phalange, challenge, le Gange, le jambon de Madrange, engrange, ... And now that I think about it, maybe change is a rhyme for orange in English too, but I'm not too sure of their pronunciation. |

What about Jaw Hinge?
I couldn't chew my orange Because some bastard had glued my jawhinge. |

| Are you sure? I can think of 'Minge' which is like a word for someone who moans (A mingey moange!) |

No "change" is not even close. As for the others, it all depends on accent. However
many words it is, for me, neither "door hinge" nor "jaw hinge" are any better rhymes
for "orange" than "minge" or plain old "hinge". My pronunciation:
"orange" = ['orindZ] "hinge" = [hindZ] "minge" = [mindZ] "jaw hinge" = ['dZo:hindZ] "door hinge" = ['do:hindZ] "change" = [tS@indZ] = /tSeindZ/ The "o" in "orange" is a short vowel and the "aw" and "oor" in "jaw hinge" and "door hinge" are long ones. Is Maria's definition of "minge" accurate? Here's another: minge "mi-nj" Click once to rate this definition: (votes: 44) Female downstairs pubic hair "Put some underwear on, your minge is showing!" http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=minge I'd never heard of "minge" before but "hinge" is definitely a word and works just as well. So what's a rhyme? Definition rhyme [Hide phonetics] verb [I or T] Words which rhyme have the same last sound: 'Blue' and 'flew' rhyme. Can you think of a word that rhymes with 'orange'? rhyme [Hide phonetics] noun 1 [C] a word which has the same last sound as another word: Can you think of a rhyme for 'orange'? 2 a short poem, especially for young children: a book of rhymes and songs See also nursery rhyme. 3 [U] the use of rhymes in poetry: This poem is her first attempt at rhyme. (from Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary) http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=67788&dict=CALD&desc=rhyme Well "orange" and "hinge" both end in [indZ] so I guess you could say that they rhyme ... couldn't you? It somehow doesn't seem to work. |

| It's the two syllables that seem impossible to match. If only "porridge" were "porrange." |
