Pronunciation & Spelling
Words ending in -ighten (brighten, frighten, tighten, lighten, heighten) rhyme with brighton (same stressed vowel /aɪ/ and ending /tən/). 'Bright' shares the -ight- spelling but ends with /t/, not /tən/, so it does not rhyme. Other words like 'button' or 'cotton' have a different vowel sound and are not rhymes.
