Genuine rhyme group: Eureka (/jʊˈriːkə/), tikka (/ˈtiːkə/), and Costa Rica's final -rica (/ˈriːkə/) all end in the same stressed /iːkə/ sound as Dominica. Spelling lookalikes that do not rhyme: America and Africa end in -ica but have unstressed /ɪkə/; Dominic is close in spelling (shared chunk dominic) but is pronounced /ˈdɒmɪnɪk/, ending in /ɪk/ with no final /ə/.
