All six words rhyme with clunky: they share the stressed vowel /ʌ/ plus /ŋki/. The -nky group (chunky, funky, hunky, spunky, skunky) also matches the spelling chunk; monkey rhymes but is spelled -nkey. Beware the one-syllable clunk /klʌŋk/, which looks like the root of clunky but does not rhyme because it lacks the final /i/.
