What is an alliteration?

Alliteration is a literary device where two or more words in a phrase or sentence start with the same sound. This sound can be a consonant or a vowel.

Examples:

* Cat in the cornfield.

* She sells seashells by the seashore.

* Peter picked a peck of pickled peppers.

Alliteration is often used in poetry, songs, and advertising to create a catchy and memorable effect. It can also be used to emphasize certain words or ideas.
