What is the definition of Allitertion?

Alliteration is the repetition of the initial consonant sounds of words in a phrase or sentence.

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.
