The rumor that "orange" rhymes with no other word is incorrect. Orange rhymes with Blorenge (a mountain in Wales) and sporange (a sac where spores are made). "Silver" has the same rumor going for it, but it actually rhymes with Wilver (a nickname) and chilver (a ewe lamb).

Talk about tortured attempts at a rhyme ...

Maybe instead, we should just say there are no "good" rhymes for the word orange, LOL.
