All six words share the stressed vowel /ɪ/ and final /k/, so they rhyme with slick /slɪk/. Watch out for lookalikes that start with sli- but sound different: slight /slaɪt/ and slice /slaɪs/ have /aɪ/ and a different final sound. Also, silk /sɪlk/ is spelled similarly but ends in /lk/, so it does not rhyme.
