Prosody

எதுகை

Ethugai

Explanation

A தொடை type: the second letter of each சீர் (or line) rhymes with the corresponding letter in another சீர்/line.

Story

Two lines that don't rhyme at the end but rhyme in their second letter still satisfy எதுகை - a subtler kind of rhyme than English readers expect.

Example

Two lines whose second letters match, like "கல்" and "நல்".
