Obviously im looking for a word that rhymes with orange. I may be overlooking the obvious answer but i cant think of one.

and it needs to be in the english language. :)

Any suggestions welcome....

The only thing that comes close is door hinge which is 2 words. But you can have other types of rhymes like near rhymes.

There is a fine Scottish malt whiskey called Glenmorangie :) But maybe brand names don't count!

And if you will be so kind as to allow me to show off my language trivia skills...

The sentence

'Satan oscillate my metallic sonatas'

reads the same backwards as forwards.

There are other palindromes out there but they make less sense and don't sound as good. Impress friends, family and colleagues with that!

We had a thread on this very same subject quite some time ago. The closest rhyme to Orange I am aware of is Lozenge.

"To get your daily dose of Orange,
Why not take it in a Lozenge."
