To determine if "toes" and "soul" form a slant rhyme, we need to understand what a slant rhyme is. A slant rhyme, also known as a half rhyme or near rhyme, occurs when the ending sounds of two words are similar but not identical.
In the case of "toes" and "soul," the ending sounds are different. "Toes" ends with a /z/ sound while "soul" ends with an /l/ sound. Since the ending sounds are not similar, "toes" and "soul" do not form a slant rhyme.
To identify slant rhymes, pay attention to the final consonant sounds and vowel sounds of the words in question. Look for words that have similar, but not exact, sounds at the end.
