This was mega confusing at first bc I just realized I do not pronounce the L in palm or calm. So they do rhyme… but it’s like pom/com

Palm is apparently not supposed to rhyme with calm

That’s not really how things work. How did she think they were “supposed” to be pronounced?

Like you’d pronounce pom poms

But pom can also rhyme with palm. Same female vowel. 😂🙃

I pronounce both without the l. It just feels so clunky to say
