around the rock the ragged rascal ran / The repetition of the same letter at the beginning of two or more words immediately succeeding each other, or at short intervals / repetition of beginning sound in poetry / the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. / the use of words that begin with the same sound near one another (as in wild and woolly or a babbling brook ), | |
Usage | ⇒ Repetition of the same consonant sound in a sentence is alliteration ⇒ The furrow followed free is an example of alliteration. ⇒ As far as sound repetition goes, I don't have any principles. I try to stay away from heavy alliteration and other pyrotechnics because I think they detract from the sense of the poem and blur the imagery. —— Maxine Kumin, “A Questionnaire,” 1977, in To Make a Prairie, 1979 ⇒ With a traditional ballad you may notice the rhyme scheme or alliteration . |
