Alliteration
Alliteration
Alliteration is the name given to a part of speech in the English language,
whereby several words all start with one particular letter.
This is common in so-called Tongue Twisters, of which there are
a couple of examples in the list below.
The phrase Tongue Twister itself is of course alliterative:
Examples of Alliteration
- (Stuttering) rifles' rapid rattle - (Wilfred Owen, Dulce et Decorum est)
- Peter Piper picked (a) peck (of) pickled peppers. (Tongue twister)
- She sells seashells (by the) sea shore. (Tongue twister)
- Behemoth, biggest born (of earth)... (Milton)
- Better brave than bored
- Train the toughest, talk the tiniest
