Pronunciation & Spelling
All listed words end with '-ridge' and share the same final rhyme /rɪdʒ/ or /trɪdʒ/ (for cartridge and partridge). Words like 'village' or 'cabbage' end in '-age' but sound different (/-ɪdʒ/ vs /-eɪdʒ/ or /-ɪdʒ/? Actually careful: 'village' is /ˈvɪlɪdʒ/ so it also ends with /ɪdʒ/ but the preceding consonant is different. However, the vowel in the last syllable is the same /ɪ/. So it might be considered a rhyme, but the spelling is '-age' not '-idge'. To avoid confusion, this note only includes words with the same '-idge' spelling and consistent pronunciation.
