Is susie saw sea shells at the shore an example of alliteration or omatopoeia?

This is an example of alliteration.

Here's why:

* Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of words (like "Susie saw sea shells").

* Onomatopoeia is the use of words that imitate the sound they represent (like "buzz," "crash," or "meow").

The sentence doesn't use words that mimic sounds, so it's not onomatopoeia.
