Here's a breakdown:
* Repetition: The same consonant sound is used multiple times.
* Initial: The sound must be at the beginning of the words.
* Consonant: The sound must be a consonant, not a vowel.
Example:
"Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers."
Here, the consonant sound "p" is repeated at the beginning of several words.
Alliteration is a common literary device used to add emphasis, create a sense of rhythm, and make writing more memorable.
