I was under the impression that we didn't have separate entries for the US and UK variants of the same rhyme. While it's true that one can't get one variant merely by substituting the constituent phonemes in the other variant one-for-one, I don't believe there are any words where the entire sequence for one can't be replaced with the entire sequence for the other, except when the rest of the word doesn't match.

- These are so different that they should stay separate, IMO: different phonemes (even if the units as wholes never contrast with each other), different number of syllables... - -sche (discuss) 04:35, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

- Also, it seems like Rhymes:English/ɪziə may have been intended for things like albizzia that are (supposedly) pronounced that way even in the US. Whether it should also hold things like Tunisia I'm not sure. - -sche (discuss) 17:37, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
