There's quite a few words in that list that I've never heard of and many that I'm unsure of but before looking at some of them, let's define the word that started it all: kitsch.
noun: art, objects, or design considered to be in poor taste because of excessive garishness or sentimentality, but sometimes appreciated in an ironic or knowing way e.g. "the lava lamp is a bizarre example of sixties kitsch"
adjective: considered to be in poor taste but appreciated in an ironic or knowing way e.g. "the front room is stuffed with kitsch knick-knacks, little glass and gilt ornaments"
It is apparently a German word adopted in about 1926 and meaning gaudy or trashy. There's more to it than that but I won't go further into the etymology here.
Figure 1 is the visuwords representation of kitsch:

Getting back to the words that RhymeZone threw up, the first to catch my eye was blitch. A quick search returned the following from Collins Dictionary:
A blitz of glitches ie. a series of successive glitches occurring in a computer that one has no control of at the time.

The top definition from Urban Dictionary is:
A black witch (Conjurer/Rootworker/Hoodoosaint) using knowledge of African thought, African/Afrodiasporic spiritual practice, Divination, Ancestral veneration, and African healing modalities to heal and fortify themselves, their elders, their peers, and the next generation of children to be.
The phrase was coined by Daizy Latifah of TheAfroMystic.com, due to the co-opting of Black religious traditions by colonisers and cultural appropriators.
I don't know what all them basic witches are doing over there with that sage and that crystal wand, but these blitches over here? They know their shit!

The Urban Dictionary definition is actually taken from TheAfroMystic.com website. From these two examples, it can be seen that blitch lends itself to being a portmanteau word as words like blitz of glitches, black witch and (to use my own example) bloody bitch become fused. However, it's exact meaning is yet to be pinned down, it remains protean.
Let's look at a word in two syllable section: magwitch. This turns out to be the surname of a character by the name of Abel Magwitch in the Charles Dickens novel "Great Expectations". See Figure 2.
The following actors have portrayed Magwitch in films, an impressive list:Figure 2 |
Chabad, also known as Lubavitch, Habad and Chabad-Lubavitch, is an Orthodox Jewish Hasidic dynasty. Chabad is one of the world's best-known Hasidic movements, particularly for its outreach activities. It is one of the largest Hasidic groups and Jewish religious organizations in the world.
While the organisation might sound innocent enough, it's anything but. However, let's move on to the four syllable rhyming phrases where the phrase without a stitch was the first to catch my eye. Figure 3 illustrates its meaning.

Perfect pitch (technically known as absolute pitch) is the ability to identify, without effort, the pitch of a note. Let's say someone plays a D on the piano. A person with perfect pitch—and the musical training to be able to name the notes—would be able to identify the note as a D without any reference.For five syllable phrases we have the lazy daisy stitch as explained in the following video:
The Slavs pretend that the ending ich, in which many localities and Istrian family names end, is a Slavic characteristic and therefore all the names ending in it are Slavic and all who bear those names are of Slavic origin. Such a claim is so universally accepted that neither in Istria, much less in Italy, has anyone thought to doubt that the names ending in ich are decidedly Slavic and only in the most absurd instances is it admitted that ich has caught on, as for example in Fabbrich, Mianich, Marinich, etc.
We could on forever looking at all the words that rhyme with kitsch but that will have to do it for now.
