Which is an example of the use of alliteration?
Alliteration is the repetition of the initial consonant sounds of words in close proximity to one another. Examples of alliteration include black and blue, we walk, and time after time. In some cases, alliteration is used to refer to any repeated consonant sounds, even if they don’t occur at the beginning of words.
What’s the difference between alliteration and assonance?
Alliteration might also be used to describe the repetition of a consonant sound nestled in the middle or even at the end of words. Blueberry, for example, contains alliteration within a single word. Assonance is similar to alliteration, except it deals exclusively with vowel sounds.
When is a word considered to be alliterative?
There is no agreed upon rule governing the distance that alliterative words must share in order for these words to be considered alliteration, but a good guideline to follow is that if you can not detect the repetition of the sounds upon reading the text aloud, then it is unlikely that others would consider the use to be alliterative.
