Ahh. Too late. I was going to say... "they are all words".
Does pilfer rhyme with silver? If you count imperfect rhymes.

What rhymes with silver? Chilver ā a female lamb.Correct.
the;y aren't anagrams for other words
You are speaking of perfect rhyme. There are other types, eye rhyme, slant rhyme, imperfect rhyme, etc. Emily Dickinson was a master of the latter. Hey, that rhymes.

None rhyme perfectly with any word.
I'm more than a little OCD. Most morning over my morning coffee I work through 6 word puzzles on the NY Times app on my phone. I do them in the same order and like the feeling when I solve them with reasonable effort. It gets my mind working, but I don't feel any frustration if I fall short on any of them.

Nope. Two vowels; the 'y' is used as a vowel

As did I.
(I give up on the word ending with 'mt'.)
I'll bet it is something British English instead of American English!
