Example
A fictional sound sequence can be structured as two completely different sentences.
Counterexample
A conventional end rhyme applies only to the end of a line.
Distinction
Distinction from mondegreen: An ordinary end rhyme applies only to the end of the line.
Effect on thought and perception
The same sound stream splits into two distinct word worlds.
Resonance
