⚠️ The trap

'Rima' = 'rhyme'. The English 'rime' is either an archaic spelling of rhyme or means hoarfrost. Italian 'brina' = frost/rime. Italian 'rima' = rhyme only — no connection to cold weather.

To say "same — a rhyme; 'rime' is archaic/poetic English for frost" in Italian:

rima (correct for rhyme)

"rima" in English means:

rhyme; a rhyming pair of lines

Example

"La poesia ha uno schema di rime alternato."

"The poem has an alternating rhyme scheme."
