May I make a suggestion? Figure out how many words do rhyme with monkey. Then, I think there was a thread awhile ago in GQ asking how many words there are in the English language. Search for that. Subtract the first number from the second, and then you will know how many words don’t rhyme with monkey (I’m assuming that’s what you want to know, as you did request that they be numbered.)
It’s that near-rhyme you have to watch out for.
- Apricot
- Bourgeoise
- cabriolet
- doom
- engulf
- frost
- gratitude
- Hermetic
- iamb
- Jello
- kicker
- lactation
- municipal
- necromancer
- octagon
- production
- quadricep
- renal
- smoke (actually not so sure about this one. Help?)
- triceratops
- uvular
- ventricle
- walrus
That’s all I can think of for now. There are more, I’m sure.
Oh. monica, almost all of your words do not rhyme with monkey. Very good!
However, these three do:
- assuming
- thread
- numbered
Please keep this in mind for future “Words that do not rhyme with ‘Monkey’” threads:)
#428 Smoke actually does rhyme in certain circumstances.
It has to be read with the pronunciaition from from old Sumerian which treats the “smo” as “muhnn” and the “ke” as “kee”
But! Ancient Sumerian can only be read by sentient, hyper-intelligent peices of string soaked in a vat of nutrative fluidlike goo.

In the dark.
So, for all intents and purposes* “smoke” usually doesn’t rhyme with “monkey.”
*'cause we love Flipper, Flipper…
Okay, great work. That’s what we needed.
Mods, please close the thread.
Don’t close thread.
Me like thread.
Me monkey.

Unfortunately, it’s another one of those weird quirks of the english language, where if taken seperately, they do, in fact rhyme - and I should know, me talks english good.
yeshhh… I do believe so. But the other way of spelling was taken, so of course, I opted for my way. Thank you very much! :o
There might be some serious rioting if this thread were closed.
And if anybody is counting anymore, I don’t believe any of those words rhyme with monkey. Normally.

Get your hands off of me you damn dirty monkey!!!

Bizarre coincidence
There once was a poster named Legomancer,
who wanted a list of words that did not rhyme with monkey.
So pravnik wrote a limerick,
with words that did not rhyme with monkey or each other,
and on top of all that the meter was absolutely horrible as well.

::looks for meter::
::doesn’t find any::
::goes off in search of lost words that do not rhyme with monkey::
- binary
½) contrary
- elementary
¼) actuary
infinity) mortuary
e*pi) scary
Th…that was beautiful, pravnik!
