ALLITERATION is complicated

Definition:


The repetition of consonant sounds in words that are close to each other. Alliteration can happens in the beginning, middle or end.

Example:


Don't delay dawns disarming display.
Dusk demands daylight.
Dewdrops dwell delicately
drawing dazzling delight.
Dewdrops dilute daisies domain.
Distinguished debutantes. Diamonds defray delivered
daylights distilled daisy dance.

Why is it important in Language Arts?


Alliteration makes poems form images and also make them more fun and interesting to read.
