Sound Devices
Onomatopoeia is when a word’s pronunciation imitates its
sound.
Example:
I could hear the crowd murmur as the news spread.
Alliteration happens when words that start with the same
sound are used close together in a phrase or sentence. The
sound is usually a consonant and the words don’t have to
always be right next to one another.
- One of the fun features of alliteration is when it becomes a
tongue twister.
Example:
She could feel her son’s sweet smell of success.
Assonance takes place when two or more words close to one
another repeat the same vowel sound but start with different
consonant sounds.
Example:
The silken tent.
