In assonance similar vowel sounds are always located where in a word?

Assonance doesn't specify the location of the similar vowel sounds within a word. It focuses on the repetition of similar vowel sounds within different words in a phrase or sentence.

Here's an example:

The cat sat on the mat.

The vowel sound "a" is repeated in "cat", "sat", and "mat", creating assonance. Notice how the "a" sound occurs in different parts of the words.
